Program notes
As Paris celebrates the Olympic Games in 2024, medici.tv invites you to play along at home in our special musical Oympics! Five events, nine nationalities, 19 composers, and three weeks to decide who will take home the gold… It's up to you to vote for your favorite pieces and composers from July 26 - August 11 and help them advance in the medal standings.
Agility, grace, and lighter-than-air movement are all qualities that will take our competitors to the top in this first event: Artistic Gymnastics. Our five finalists all composed memorable waltzes: Sibelius's Valse Triste, Ravel's La Valse, Strauss's Blue Danube, Shostakovich's Waltz No. 2, and Chopin's Minute Waltz — which one deserves the highest prize?
