by Jr. Johann Strauss (Composer), Greg Anderson (Composer)
A virtuoso showpiece made famous by the Anderson & Roe Piano Duo, this challenging arrangement of Strauss' "Blue Danube" waltz takes the elegance of the Viennese waltz as a point of departure and plunges headlong into the passions that undulate beneath the dance's restrained facade. The freewheeling concert fantasy, arranged by Greg Anderson for one-piano, four-hands, also attempts to illustrate the striking parallels between four feet traversing a dance floor and four hands navigating a piano keyboard.
