For a long time, waltz was perceived as a provocation.
In a minuet, the most popular dance till then, men and women danced side by side. In a waltz they turned into each other’s arms. Enough to rock the entire world!
A wonderful program, covering a century of waltzes for piano and featuring an astonishing variety of tempos, atmospheres and colors. Three masterpieces punctuate it: Weber’s pure romantic, Liszt’s devilish virtuosity and Ravel’s tragic finale. With his steely fingers wearing kid gloves, Peter Laul is the ideal choreographer for this dazzling pianistic ballet.
