Composers:- Strauss II, Johann
Duration: 5
Description:
Künstler-Quadrille nach Motiven berühmter Meister (Artist’s Quadrille based on Themes of famous Masters), Op. 201, was written in 1858 by Johann Strauss II (1825-1899). The quadrille was a lively, stylized dance for four couples, arranged in a square. The dance developed from military parades in which four horsemen performed square-shaped formations or figures. The performances became quite popular, prompting people to perform quadrilles without horses. While Strauss was known as ‘The Waltz King,’ he wrote music for dances in all of the currently popular forms, including the quadrille. This version of the quadrille dance incorporates famous themes by master composers in each of its six short sections: 1. Le Pantalon: Mendelssohn and Mozart, 2. L’été: Weber and Chopin, 3. La Poule: Paganini, Meyerbeer, and Ernst, 4. Trénis: Weber and Schulhoff, 5. La Pastourelle: Schubert and Mozart, and 6. Finale: Beethoven. Instrumentation: 1+Picc.2.2.2: 4.2.1.1: Timp.Perc(1): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set): Piano Conductor Score only.
