Watch Manu López perform his popular saxophone cover of the iconic theme from Dirty Dancing:
His popular video rendition features a professional collaboration with dancers Ilu Policarpo and Jorge Horcas , recreating the cinematic feel of the original movie.
While the Dirty Dancing theme is a standout, it often appears alongside other major 80s and 90s saxophone reinterpretations released or featured in his 2021 collections: ( Dirty Dancing Theme) "Careless Whisper" (George Michael) "I Want To Break Free" (Queen) "Every Breath You Take" (The Police) "The Winner Takes It All" (ABBA) "I Will Survive" (Gloria Gaynor) "Smooth Operator" (Sade)
López's approach to the Dirty Dancing theme blends melodic accuracy with a smooth, romantic aesthetic typical of contemporary saxophone jazz.
