Steppe Dance 

Steppe Dance is a concert item with a combination of a slow opening section followed by a fast dance movement.  The flavour is distinctly Eastern European, particularly in the opening section.  The dance movement has two sections, the first a new theme, and the second a variation on the folk-song theme of the opening material.  This part of the dance features a slow and deliberate start which gets faster and faster with some neat filigree work required of the cornets. 4 minutes
