andersonroe.net | "A New Account of the Blue Danube Waltzes," composed and performed by the Anderson & Roe Piano DuoCamera work: Estelle Choi, Yalin Chi, Greg Anderson, Elizabeth RoeRead "Making the Video, the Anderson & Roe Way" on our blog (www.andersonroe.net/blog.html), and watch the outtakes in the video response section below!In composing this work, we sought to emphasize the emotions that hide beneath the surface of the typically restrained Viennese Waltz. Note: the narrative is not a representation of reality. Yes, we're really playing the piano, but no, we didn't actually meet over a lost mitten, and no, we're not actually romantic lovers. :-)Be sure to watch for:* The choreography of our hands. We wanted to show the similarity between four hands playing together on a piano and four feet on a dance floor.Be sure to listen for:* The musical combining of themes. At times, melodies are layered atop one another, most notably at the climax. Believe it or not, seven melodies from throughout the piece are being played simultaneously (7:49 - 8:10), a real compositional feat!Don't miss andersonroe.net. It's not your everyday website!
