Tambourin in E minor

Jean-Philippe Rameau

  • Difficulty 4
  • E minor
  • 3 min
  • 50 measures

A dance from Rameau's Pièces de clavecin, published in 1724. Lively and bright, this rondeau sets a trill-filled single-note melody in the right hand over a steady left-hand drone. The tambourin dance takes its name from a Provençal drum traditionally played alongside a small flute, and the bass figure imitates the drum.
