| Description: A czardas is a popular Hungarian dance of gypsy origin, and is widely used by composers such as Liszt, Brahms, Tschaikowsky, and Strauss. It is in duple meter, beginning with a slow introduction and followed by a rapid, wild dance where the women’s traditional wide skirts form distinctive shapes when whirled. Avoid going too fast too soon, saving the fastest tempo for the ending. Dynamics are well marked, but it may be adjusted if needed. |
