Chabrier - Fête polonaise, from the opera "Le Roi malgré lui" (Acte II)
Description on Youtube:
This is a thrilling excerpt from the beginning of Act II of the opera Le Roi malgré lui by Emmanuel Chabrier (1841-1894). The elegant, surging waltz rhythms of Chabrier's music inspired Maurice Ravel's orchestral poem La valse. Charles Dutoit conducts the Philharmonic Orchestra and Choir of Radio France.
