This week, we’re taking a musical trip around the world with Wynn-Anne Rossi’s newly released series Dancing With the World.

Designed as a four-volume collection spanning multiple levels, the series explores traditional dance styles from a variety of cultures and transforms them into engaging piano repertoire for students. In this episode, I’m focusing on six selections from Volume 2, written for late-elementary and early-intermediate pianists.

Along the way, we’ll explore the dances that inspired these pieces and consider why Dancing With the World could become a wonderful framework for a themed recital, summer camp, or studio-wide project.

Pack your dancing shoes and your passport!
