SKU: BF.BM072-SET
Composed by Zoltan Kodaly. Arranged by Jos van de Braak. Baton Music orchestral series. Full Score and set of parts. Duration 16:30. Baton Music #BM072-SET. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM072-SET).Despite its title Kodály's Dances of Galanta is not so much a dance-suite as a symphonic poem.The dances in this piece are derived from the 18th-century Verbunkos, a characteristic Hungarian dance of military origin, also used in the Hungarian Dances by Johannes Brahms. The solo clarinet is very prominent and the writing for violins is quite virtuoso in the bravura manner of Gypsy fiddling.
