Sara Mohr-Pietsch hits the dancefloor, exploring the world of Marquez's Danz贸n No 2.
Mexican composers Juan Garc铆a de Z茅spedes and Manuel Ponce feature alongside music from Cuba - the home of the danz贸n. We also venture into music dedicated to children from Teresa Carre帽o and Shara Nova, before exploring unofficial national anthems with Heitor Villa-Lobos, Jean Sibelius, Jos茅 Pablo Moncayo and Joseph Haydn.
Sara also digs into the rhythmic heartbeat of Danz贸n No 2 - the 'son clave' rhythm - which crops up everywhere from Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story to the mega-hit children's TV show Bluey.
