- 3 Fantastic Dances Op.5
These three piano miniatures composed in 1920 present an early Shostakovich and his interpretation of different traditional dance styles from a contemporary perspective. There is much of Shostakovich's familiar lively rhythms andunusual harmonies in these youthful pieces, as well as his fascination with folk forms and melodies which would characterise many of his later works.
