Let’s Dance: The University of Melbourne Wind Symphony

The University of Melbourne Wind Symphony presents Let’s Dance, guest conducted by Dr Jaclyn Hartenberger.

‘I programmed Let’s Dance to compel the audience to move and imagine. This program will have you toe-tapping with Alfred Reed’s Armenian Dances, Part 1, Omar Thomas’ Caribana, and it will have you introspecting with Jodie Blackshaw’s Peace Dancer and Igor Stravinsky’s Circus Polka: Composed for a Young Elephant. The program finale, Philip Sparke’s Dance Movements (a four-movement work), will showcase the Wind Symphony’s musicians while highlighting their musical artistry. Come music with us and let’s dance!’.
