Product Description

Masters Of Modern 4 makes its opening Waltz selection a distinctive part of the programme. Gymnopedie, Oh, Mio Babbino Caro and Close Every Door provide three differently titled choices within the same stated Slow Waltz setting. The two Tangos that follow, Tango Delle Papinere and Hotel Victoria, change the dance character before a three-track Viennese Waltz group introduces Carousel, Hennessey Waltz and Wien, Wien.

The latter part of the album is equally varied. Just In Time, The Maddest Kind Of Love and Baby, It's Cold Outside are listed as Slow Fox, while Vicky & The Valves, Back On The Corner and Brown Derby Jump complete the Quickstep section. For dancers who recognise these melodies, their assigned categories make it easier to find a suitable practice recording without assuming that another version of the same song has the same rhythm or pace.

The fourteen-track Dancelife album supplies a compact five-dance Standard repertoire. Original durations and numeric tempo labels are kept in the list, including differences between the Tango entries. This makes the programme useful for choosing individual pieces, planning a class sequence or keeping alternatives available within one dance. The programme ends with three Quicksteps, keeping a choice of closing tracks available after the preceding Waltz, Tango and Slow Fox groups.
