In the Bourree, Mel Bonis follows the traditional form in a fast 2/2 beat, which is initiated by a short one-eighth-off-beat. One long and two short notes are the basis of the elegant pavane. The Sarabande was conducted by the composer on April 26, 1906, in Paris on the occasion of a marathon concert by the Societe Nationale de Musique. CONTENTBourree op. 62/2, Pavane op. 81/3, Sarabande op. 82/2.
