Danse Macabre, or Dance of Death, is one of the most famous works by Camille Saint-Saëns. The composition is based on the poem of the same name by Henri Cazalis (1840-1909).The dance of death is musically represented with various effects, starting with twelve strokes of the clock - which of course suggest midnight. Then dissonant sounds and a somewhat wistful waltz melody follow. A thematic build-up full of tempo changes leads to an intense majestuoso, which ends abruptly, after which a melancholy farewell melody takes over. This wonderful symphonic poem appeals to everyoneâ??s imagination - as it will in this expert arrangement for accordion orchestra.

Danse Macabre is een van de beroemdste werken van Camille Saint-Saëns. Deze dodendansâ?? begint met twaalf middernachtelijke klokslagen. Vervolgens begint een weemoedige walsmelodie in een verminderde kwint. Via een thematische opbouwmet tempowisselingen bereikt het werk een majestuoso. Dit eindigt abrupt en wordt overgenomen door een melancholische melodie. Danse Macabre is een prachtig symfonisch gedicht in een vakkundig arrangement voor accordeonorkest

Danse Macabre ist eines der beru?hmtesten Werke von Camille Saint-Saëns. In dieser Bearbeitung wird der Totentanzâ?? mit verschiedenen Effekten musikalisch wiedergegeben - beginnend mit zwölf Glockenschlägen, die natu?rlich Mitternacht andeuten. Dann schlieÃ?en sich dissonante Klänge und eine etwas wehmu?tige Walzermelodie an. Ein thematischer Aufbau voller Tempowechsel fu?hrt zu einem intensiven Maestoso, das abrupt endet, woraufhin eine melancholische Melodie u?bernimmt. Das wundervolle sinfonische Tongedicht - und auch diese fachkundige Bearbeitung fu?r Akkordeonorchester - beflu?geln jedermanns Fantasie.

La Danse macabre (1874) est une des ?uvres les plus célèbres de Camille Saint-Saëns. Minuit sonne. Satan va conduire le bal. La Mort paraît et la ronde commence, presque furtivement au début, sâ??anime, semble sâ??apaiser et repart avec une rage accrue qui ne cessera quâ??au crépuscule matinal. Le sabbat se dissout avec le lever du jour. Cet arrangement élégant pour Orchestre dâ??Accordéons est fidèle la version originale.

Danse Macabre started life in 1874 as a tone poem scored for violin and orchestra which vividly describes a poem by Henri Cazalis. As the clock strikes midnight, the cloaked figure of Death appears and calls on the skeletons to dance to the waltz he plays on his violin. The E string is tuned a semitone lower to create a diminished fifth, the dissonant interval referred to as the devil in music during the Middle Ages. The dance builds and builds but eventually, as the cock crows, heralding the approaching dawn, the skeletons vanish back into their graves, and death departs.

This arrangement for violin and piano was made by Saint-Saëns himself in 1877.
