Weber's Invitation to the Dance
Sara Mohr-Pietsch explores the orchestral arrangement of Weber's "Invitation to the Dance." Tune in for music that celebrates the joy of dancing, and works with surprising endings.
Sara Mohr-Pietsch explores Berlioz's orchestral arrangement of "Invitation to the Dance," originally composed by Weber.
This piece tells the story of two dancers: the invitation is made, accepted and at the end of their dance, they go their separate ways.
Tune in for music that celebrates the joy of dancing, including waltzes from Chopin and Coleridge-Taylor, and a wildly popular arrangement from the latest series of Bridgerton. We'll also shine a spotlight on the cello, with works from Sally Beamish and JS Bach, along with music with a surprising ending, featuring beloved symphonies from Haydn and Vaughan Williams.
