This playlist is designed to go with Hobnob’s party plan for throwing a modern-day ball. So, classical music with an edge starts the mix which then morphs into a cool modern day assortment.

I love the idea of pooling friends together in funky black tie, for a night of fun and frolicking, just like they did in the old days. (see the entire plan for hosting a fun party with all the food in the shape of a ball) This playlist fits the bill, and warms up things with a bit of formality, but as the evening goes on, it takes on new characteristics.

Take the party from classical calm to dirty dancing. This playlist is three-fold:

1. Start the party off with upbeat classical music, a lively mix of short, mood-enhancing clips that evoke past balls.

2. Phase two: transition to Classical Trance, which mixes classical music with modern beats.

3. Phase three is up to you: pull out your best dance mix and get everyone on the dance floor or try deep Dance Mix by DJ Daveed.
