Product Description

Throughout her life, Mel Bonis composed a great number of waltzes, the dance giving its title either to the whole collection (Suite en forme de valses, Six Valses-caprice), or to one of its pieces (Dix-Sept Pièces enfantines, Cinq Pièces pour piano), or appearing quite frequently in the subtitle of a piece.

Les Gitanos, which exists in two versions, for solo piano or piano duet, holds a special place among this body of works: it is the piece with which the composer won the first price in the waltz competition of the journal Piano-Soleil, on 15 October 1891.

Scored here for Clarinet Quintet, this lovely piece is a great addition to any concert or recital.
