Czardas (Xylophone solo)

Description
Vittorio Monti was born on January 6, 1868 in Naples (Italy). His musical education (violin and composition), he enjoyed at the conservatory there. Around his 30's Monti went to Paris. He earned a living as a conductor and wrote several ballets and operettas. In his last years, Monti died in 1922, he devoted himself to teaching and composing.
His famous "Czardas" has made his name known even today.
Initially the czardas was a Hungarian folk dance , but after the mid-nineteenth century it was even a dance for the upper-class.
Czardas begins with a slow introduction, the Lassan (slow and sad), and then the fast part, Friska, follows.
Czardas is not, as somany people think typical gypsy music.
