Enescu, like many eastern European composers, left his native Romania for the Western cultural capitals but returned to re-engage with the folk music of his homeland. This piece shows what a fantastic orchestrator Enescu was, cleverly weaving in a Romanian folk song into a series of dances played at ever-increasing speed. It鈥檚 an extrovert鈥檚 piece.
