Simple Statements
We began the New Year in old Vienna, waltzing until
midnight to the romantic melodies of Johann Strauss,
performed by a seventeen piece orchestra, lead by Hugh
Ewart.
After a Champagne
reception the ball commenced with a polonaise,
quadrille, and opening waltz that were performed by ten young couples in flowing white
dresses and black tailcoats.
In addition to
Viennese waltzes, polkas, galops, a grand march, and the
Fledermaus Quadrille, attendees were
also invited to join artists from Portland Opera Studio in
singing highlights from Die Fledermaus.
