Jean Sibelius

5 Danses Champétres, op. 106

Op. 106

Composed 1924

Chamber

The Danses champêtre (literal English translation: "Country Dances"), Op. 106, is a collection of five duos for violin and piano written in 1924 and 1925 by the Finnish composer Jean Sibelius. The pieces are without descriptive names and, as such, are known by their tempo markings. They were published as a set in 1926 by the American firm Carl Fischer Music. Along with the standalone Novellette (Op. 102, 1922), the Four Pieces (Op. 115, 1929), and the Three Pieces (Op. 116, 1929), Sibelius's Op. 106 is among his late-career, mature works in the genre.
