Danses champêtre
The Danses champêtre, Op. 106, is a collection of five duos for violin and piano written in 1924 and 1925 by the Finnish composer Jean Sibelius. The pieces are without descriptive names and, as such, are known by their tempo markings. They were published as a set in 1926 by the American firm Carl Fischer Music. Along with the standalone Novellette, the [Four Pieces, Opus number|Op. 115 (Sibelius)|Four Pieces], and the Three Pieces, Sibelius's Op. 106 is among his late-career, mature works in the genre.
