I couldn't agree more! This is Tchaikovsky letting his hair down. When it was first performed (by Tchaikovsky) he wrote, "I've never experienced such an ovation. They wouldn't stop clapping and cheering!" Fabulous, rarely heard music. We should put a stop to that. Play it more often, please!
I think this conductor's interpretation is perfect! It's exremely danceable.

The Valse Polacca is an amazing coda to the Suite No. 3 in G Major by Tchaikovsky. By far, Tchaikovsky's most amazing Suite!
