I love how many of my favorite Living Room Dance Party tunes are under 3 minutes! This is Khachaturain's Saber Dance and the second you hear it, I promise you'll have the urge to run around in circles. It's a guaranteed energy booster! I also found a neat video of violinist Vanessa Mae performing a rock/techno arrangement of it - with a clear violin, smoke machines, dancers, the works. WonderGirl was impressed!
I randomly picked a good sounding $.89 MP3 download here. You can also find it on almost any classical greatest hits albums - like this Bolero & Other Greatest Dance Hits. There are lots of great compilations that feature just high power works that can really get your house rocking (these, for example). And speaking of rocking - I've created a YouTube playlist with all the available songs from our Living Room Dance Party series!! When you are in the mood for a quick pick-me-up, just click play and start dancing!

Also, next week is going to be Anatomy Week - I'll be featuring posts with ALL the things that happen in our practice sessions, piano lessons, violin lessons and music theory time. I'll trying to add as many details as I can so you can get an idea about how we go about creating a lesson studio here in our home. Is there anything you're curious about? Anything you'd like to see a post on? I'd love to hear your suggestions!
