Chabrier - Fête polonaise, from the opera "Le Roi malgré lui" (Acte II)

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.

C'est merveilleux et spectaculaire, hautement festif que cette musique pleinement articulée faite autant pour l'ouïe ( non Louis!!) que pour la vision du bal chorégraphié, donc des couleurs, du rythme des sons , de la mélodie .
Si vous êtes dépressifs, écoutez Chabrier, sa musique effervescente vous redonnera je pense du pep's ou du punch :--))

There are just a few videos concerning "fetes polonaises" from Chabrier on RUclips. This version is I think the best one. Thanks to Charles Dutoit...

To each his own, we all hear works as they reach us, and I make no apologies for my feelings about this piece. I vastly prefer it as a purely instrumental work; moreover, in the original operatic version, there is a lot of repetitive material, frankly superfluous, which I'm perfectly happy to dispense with. I've seen the entire opera myself, and have heard this version before, but no; I stick to my guns on preferring it the other way. Moreover, some of the choral interjections cover up some of the vital and thematic and material in the orchestra. Perhaps if these could have been balanced forward - but no matter, I will take it as one customarily hears it, thank you very much, without any apologies on my part. It is so vibrant on its own that really, nothing else is needed.
