"Scène de la Csárda No. 14 On the Themes of Lavotta, Op. 117" is a composition by Hungarian violinist and composer Jenö Hubay. It was composed in 1904 and premiered in the same year. The piece is part of a series of Hungarian dances and folk music-inspired compositions that Hubay wrote throughout his career. The composition is divided into three movements, each with its own distinct character and tempo. The first movement is marked Allegro moderato and is based on a lively and energetic theme. The second movement, marked Andante, is more lyrical and introspective, with a slower tempo and a more melancholic melody. The final movement, marked Allegro vivace, returns to the energetic and lively character of the first movement, with a fast tempo and a virtuosic violin part. The piece is characterized by its use of Hungarian folk music elements, including the use of the csárdás rhythm and the incorporation of traditional Hungarian melodies. Hubay's virtuosic violin writing is also a prominent feature of the composition, with the solo violin part featuring numerous technical challenges and demanding passages. Overall, "Scène de la Csárda No. 14 On the Themes of Lavotta, Op. 117" is a lively and energetic composition that showcases Hubay's skill as both a composer and a violinist. Its use of Hungarian folk music elements and virtuosic violin writing make it a popular choice for violinists looking to showcase their technical abilities and musicality.
