DANCE BREAK: fancy footwork
The concert takes place Sunday, January 18 at 5:00 PM in the Club Room (upstairs) at the Schlafly Tap Room, offering audiences an intimate, upbeat musical experience paired with great local beer and good company.
Guests are invited to arrive early to enjoy drinks from the bar, and dinner is available in the restaurant downstairs before or after the performance. The one-hour program explores how composers across eras have drawn inspiration from movement, footwork, and dance—ranging from Baroque court traditions to American folk influences, from Shostakovich’s playful Polka to an iconic Argentine tango.
