Trepak, composed by Pyotr Il’yich Tchaikovsky, is a vibrant and energetic Russian folk dance in a time signature of 3/4. It is written in G major and shifts to E minor in some sections. The 55 measures of this piece evoke a sense of urgency and excitement. Swirling sixteenth notes, rolling eighth notes, and syncopations drive this piece forward with an energy that is hard to resist. With its jaunty rhythms and exhilarating melodies, Trepak is an enjoyable piece to experience and perform.Russian Dance (“Trepak”) – Pyotr Il’yich Tchaikovsky (Piano Solo)
