Jan谩膷ek's Lachian Dances is a work for large orchestra written in the late 1800s. Originally named Wallachian Dances, Jan谩膷ek changed the title when the region鈥檚 name changed, as the dances are derived from folk melodies from that region.

Jan谩膷ek set out in his Lachian Dances to celebrate pastoral life and culture that was beginning to decline in his lifetime. Split into six separate dances, each reflects folk music and pastoral characters such as a blacksmith and a peasant鈥檚 preparations for winter in the third and sixth dances respectively. They have remained popular due to their evocative and expressive nature.
