No. 6: Montagues and Capulets, Allegro pesante

Music for the ball (No. 13) from Act I, Scene 4 of the ballet. The dominant, heavy, and imposing melody in this scene is the dance music for knights and ladies. In the middle section (Moderato tranquillo), an extremely beautiful and sentimental melody is heard as Juliet dances with Paris, the young man her parents encourage her to marry.
