01 / The first 30 seconds
30-second entrance
Hear the dance step before the melody. Tchaikovsky’s charm is not only the tune; the body starts moving first.
00:00–00:50: hear the dance inside the beat, then how melody enters.
02 / LISTEN FOR
Three things to wait for
- Dance before melody
- Color shifts between winds and strings
- A little unease under sweetness
