Pavane con Salsa

Written By LightPress

Gorgeous melody, lush harmony, rich orchestration, and a sizzling salsa groove

Title: Pavane con Salsa

Composer: Gabriel Fauré/Tim Berens

Description: Pavane con Salsa begins exactly as Fauré’s original, with a quiet pizzicato shared between the cellos and the violas. Four bars into the piece, a salsa dance party erupts out of the orchestra as Pavane is set to a sizzling hot salsa groove.

The melody, harmony, and form of this arrangement are all Fauré. The groove highlights Fauré’s genius in a unique way. Audience members’ faces always light up when they realize they recognize the melody, but the groove makes them want to dance.

This piece would make a wonderful accompaniment for a group of local salsa dancers to perform with your orchestra.
