Product Description
Hans Neusiedler's jolly dance (duple time passamezzo), together with the related 3/4 hupfauf.
I have added a counter melody to be played on the wind instrument.
The original title of this piece was "Ein welscher Tanz" (= a dance from a nearbye country, possibly Italy, Switzerland or even Poland)
and also "Wascha Mesa" (possibly a corruption of the Polish words Wasze Miejsce = your place - ie a dance from your country [Poland]).
It was mistranslated as Dance of the Washerwomen (Tanz der Wäscherinnen) because of the sound of the word "Wascha".
Recordings of the original dance have been made under each of these titles.
The pdf includes score and parts.
The sound sample is an electronic preview.
