After the success of Dance Starters, a follow-up in the Flexible 4 Series was a must. Again, Peter Kleine Schaars composed four dances, in which he, by means of refreshing chords, uncomplicated rhythms and simple melody lines, takes youthful musicians to The Dance Club. There, they learn the cha-cha-cha, the rumba, disco dancing and an actual Oriental belly dance. Great fun for everyone.

Na het succes van Dance Starters kon een vervolg hierop niet uitblijven. Opnieuw componeerde Peter Kleine Schaars een viertal dansen, waarin hij met frisse akkoorden, ongecompliceerde ritmes en eenvoudige melodielijnen de jeugdigemuzikanten meeneemt naar The Dance Club. Daar leren ze de chachacha, de rumba, discodansen en een heuse oosterse buikdans. De thema’s en begeleidingen zijn weer gelijkwaardig verdeeld over de vier stemmen, zodat aluw muzikanten een echte uitdaging vinden in het studeren en spelen van The Dance Club.

In vier Tänzen führt Peter Kleine Schaars - mittels erfrischender Akkorde, unkomplizierter Rhythmen und einfacher Melodielinien - junge Musiker in den Dance Club. Dort lernen sie Cha-Cha-Cha, Rumba, Discotanzen und einen echten orientalischen Bauchtanz. Da die Themen und Begleitungen gleichmäßig auf alle vier Stimmen verteilt sind, teilen sich auch alle Spaß und Herausforderung!

Après le succès de Dance Starters, la réalisation d’une nouvelle œuvre dans la collection Flexible 4 Series s’imposait comme une évidence. Voici The Dance Club (“Le club de danse”), une suite de quatre danses ( quatre voix) aux accords rafraîchissants, aux rythmes sans fioritures et aux mélodies simples. Vos jeunes musiciens interpréteront un cha-cha-cha, une rumba, un air disco et une danse du ventre orientale. Dansons !

In imitation of the huge ‘House rage’ (at the end of the eighties) John Emerson Blackstone composed ‘House of Dance’ for youth orchestra.
It proved to be a success.

House owes its name to the place where this music was ‘developed’, i.e. an old night club called ‘The Warehouse’ in Chicago. Many subcultures followed.
Whether you like the style or not, one thing is certain: House music (also called Dance music) for many provides the basis for hours of fun on the dance floor.

In navolging van de enorme ‘house-rage’ (eind 80er jaren) schreef John Emerson Blackstone deze ‘House of Dance’ voor jeugdorkest.
Het bleek een schot in de roos.

House dankt zijn naam aan de plaats waar deze muziek ‘ontstond’,‘the Warehouse’ in Chicago. Er volgden vele sub-culturen.
Leuk of niet leuk, één ding is zeker, house-muziek (ook wel dance-muziek) blijkt voor velen de motor voor, soms urenlang, dansplezier.

English.

In his polonaises Chopin takes on the tradition of a genre recently endowed with the function of national dance. Three childhood polonaises constitute a replica of the model of the functional dance, while each of the later works of this genre has its own character: lyric, dramatic or heroic. Tied into the interpretations were subjects such as the struggle for freedom, the knightly and insurgent traditions and sometimes they came to have a symbolic function in Polish history. These works were edited by by I. J. Paderewski, L. Bronarski and J. Turczy ski.

NORA’S DANCE is a jazz-influenced rag from 1921, and among the only surviving compositions by Nora Douglas Holt. A charming and exciting work rejuvenated by Lara Downes’ 2021 recording for the Rising Sun label, the rag is both a fun 2 minutes for pianists and audiences, and also a fascinating time capsule. Composed several years after Scott Joplin’s death, and several years before the Charleston pervaded popular music, NORA’S DANCE blossoms with the energy and jazz harmony starting to emerge as The Roaring 20’s, using ragtime and stride as the seed for pianistic style.
My own life in music has been driven by a quest to find strong female role models, trails to follow, shoulders to stand on. In Nora Douglas Holt, I find an inspiring example of creativity, independence, and resilience – with a dash of troublemaking. She was a free spirit, a force of nature, and she lived a fascinating and eventful life on her own terms. She reinvented herself through five marriages and at least as many careers. From her beginnings at the piano at age four, she explored many avenues of musical expression – performing, composing, music journalism, broadcasting, teaching – all with inventiveness, style, and zeal.She made the most of the Roaring ’20s, as an artist, socialite, jetsetter, muse, and patroness of the Harlem Renaissance. In 1921 she started an independent arts journal called “Music and Poetry,” where the charming piano solo Nora’s Dance was first published. I think the piece captures beautifully, in a little under 2 minutes, the energy and excitement of those heady years.In 1926, Nora left New York to travel the world, performing in nightclubs throughout Europe and Asia. She put her belongings in storage before she left, and when she came back she discovered that many of her things had been stolen, including more than 200 of her musical compositions. She never composed again.When the Depression hit, she moved out to Los Angeles, where she studied music education at USC, taught music in the LA public schools, and opened her own beauty salon. She returned to New York in the ’40s and worked as a music critic for several major newspapers, then launched yet another career, this time in broadcasting. Her popular radio concert series “Nora Holt’s Concert Showcase” broadcast to New York’s classical music audience, with a focus on Black composers and performers.Ahead of her time, larger than life, full of ideas…. I am so pleased to introduce you to the feisty and free spirited Nora Douglas Holt!
