Dances of Galánta (Galántai táncok) is a 1933 orchestral work by Zoltán Kodály. HistoryThe piece was composed on commission for the 80th anniversary of the Budapest Philharmonic Society. It is based on folk music of Galánta (now part of Slovakia), where Kodály lived for several years.[1] The composer remarked: "At that time there existed a famous Gypsy band...This was the first 'orchestral' sonority that came to the ears of the child...About 1800 some books of Hungarian dances were published in Vienna, one of which contained music 'after several Gypsies from Galánta'...the composer has taken his principal themes from these old publications".[2] Most of the pieces used were of the verbunkos style – originally developed as military recruiting music, but generalizing to a Hungarian folk tradition in the early 1800s.[1] Kodály saw the piece as a "sequel" to his 1927 piano suite Dances of Marosszék.[2] MusicDances of Galánta is in five sections, lasting a total of about 16 minutes. It is scored for two flutes, piccolo, two oboes, two clarinets in A, two bassoons, four horns, two trumpets, timpani, triangle, tubular bells, snare drum, and string orchestra.[1] The clarinet is particularly prominent, representing the traditional tárogató (a type of single-reed instrument).[2]The piece recalls the two-part slow-fast structure of the traditional verbunkos music: it opens with a slow introduction moving to a clarinet cadenza and andante maestoso section, followed by four fast dance sections.[3] The faster sections adopt a characteristic syncopated rhythm.[4] Dances of Galanta is now often used by schools for study purposes.
