Composed in 1994 by Mexican composer Arturo Márquz, Danzón No. 2 has become a piece beloved by youth orchestras and professionals alike. The piece highlights the nostalgia of the slow danzón, a couples dance, with added jubilance of far more percussive and energetic themes. It features numerous demanding solos across the orchestra, as well as complex key and tempo changes. This clip is from the end of the piece.
ELM Youth Orchestra performed this as part of our June 2026 concert.
