Danse Humoresque

This waltz-like dance will sound humorously off-beat, with its 5/8 meter opening section, contrasted by a cantabile middle section in 3/8 time, and then returning to the first section’s antics and a climactic closing page of a mix of 4/8, 5/8, and 7/8 measures. The technical challenges to the late intermediate pianist will be fully rewarded by the exciting and entertaining performance that results.
