It's not a long piece - just over 10 minutes, but it's still a bit long for an attention span.
After that, she and the Dude both wandered on, coming back in the room to dance when a familiar theme started to play. It's such a lovely piece, great for dancing or background music.
- It begins with beautiful rolling lines from the woodwinds, and as soon as it starts, pretend you are floating on the waves, getting bigger and bigger as the line drops into the strings.
- About a minute in, the main theme starts and you float and glide all over the room.
- Around the 3 minute mark, you hear proper dance music as played by a wedding on the banks of the river, and the dancing changes dramatically. WonderGirl insisted I waltz with her.
Here's a lovely download version from Amazon with Leonard Bernstein: The Moldau (Vltava) - Symphonic Poem No. 2 from "My Fatherland (Ma Vlast). Have fun!
PS - I also just added it to the Living Room Dance Party playlist on youtube. I don't know about you, but we are really enjoying that! :)
