By Parry Library. Composed by Leo Delibes. Arranged by Peet du Toit. This edition: pdf. Romantic Period. 7 pages. Peet du Toit #1384567. Published by Peet du Toit (A0.1824648).The "Waltz" (or Valse) from Léo Delibes' 1870 ballet Coppélia is a famous musical piece, frequently featuring in Act I as Swanhilda's entrance waltz and appearing in the overture. It is renowned for its melodic richness, marking a shift toward more intricate, symphonic music in ballet. The score is characterized as "sprightly" and lively.
Context: The waltz is part of a comic ballet originally choreographed by Arthur Saint-Léon, with music by Delibes.
Significance: It is often cited as one of the most popular, enduring, and colorful pieces of dance music from the late 19th-century repertoire.
Other Music: Beyond the waltz, the Coppélia score includes a famous mazurka, a czardas (one of the first in ballet), and a "Waltz of the Dolls".
Legacy: The ballet's music, particularly the waltz, is considered a "golden age" piece, enhancing the theatrical experience through vivid orchestration.
Here is an abridged version thereof transcribed for a String Quartet which I hope you will enjoy and can use at appropriate gigs.
