Petite Fantaisie sur un ballet d'Arlequin

This composition, too, handles the original by Drigo rather freely. Centre core after the calm introduction is a lively middle part, called "rude et vite", which conveys joy of life and vivality. Jazz-like sounds cannot be failed to notice. The unusual final chord, which seems both funny and reflective, takes up the open chord of the transitory part between introduction and main part of the original.
