Visions of Dance

Three waltzes make up the body of this Impressionistic work for full orchestra. The first waltz is in a quick three-to-a-measure; the second is a slow ¾; the finale is a very exuberant waltz in one. While requiring solid technique in all parts, the piece is accessible to experienced players. The soaring melodic lines, tall chord harmonies, and orchestral color produce a stunning and memorable musical impact.
