Invitation to the Dance

Over het evenement

Music and movement are inseparably linked to one another. In this concert, works by Weber, Schumann and Ravel will lift you off your seat.

Dance as a visual expression of music and as an interplay between people has always served as inspiration for composers. Three composers invite the audience to a "moving" concert: Weber’s "Aufforderung zum Tanz" (Invitation to Dance) – opens the door to a ballroom, Schumann’s violin concerto – the free solo section and Ravel’s homage to the Strauß dynasty "La Valse" provide the Tonkünstler with ample room for a round dance.

Swiss conductor Mario Venzago and Latvian violinist Baiba Skride are the dance masters at this extraordinary concert.
