Sandpaper Ballet for Orchestra

Composers:
  • Anderson, Leroy
Detailed Instrumentation: 2+Picc.2.2.2: 2ASax.Tsax: 4.3.3.1: Perc(3): Str
Duration: 3
Description:

Written as a tribute to the soft-shoe style of dancing common in vaudeville acts of the early 20th century, Leroy Anderson’s “Sandpaper Ballet” was not intended to be an actual ballet, though it certainly has been choreographed numerous times. Using several types of sandpaper to emulate the soft-shoe sound, this delightful gem fits well among the other humorous works written by the master of the light classics genre. An American Pops classic in it’s original scoring, this work is part of the Anderson Classics Series by E.F. Kalmus.
