Composed by: Paul Bazelaire

“Montagnarde d’Auvergne” is the fifth movement from the ‘Suite Francaise Op.114‘ by Paul Bazelaire for cello & piano.

Paul Bazelaire (4 March 1886 – 11 December 1958) was a French cellist and composer.

The bourrée originates in Auvergne in France.  First mentioned as a popular dance in 1665, the present-day dance in lower Auvergne, also called Montagnarde (Montanhardas), is in triple time while that of high Auvergne called Auvergnate (Auvernhatas) is in double time. Modern variants termed bourrées are danced as partner dances, circle dances, square dances and line dances.

Purchase includes:

  • Accompaniment (Minim = 72bpm)
  • Accompaniment (Minim = 82bpm)
  • Accompaniment + Cello

Performance Tip
For the last chord in the ‘rall’ just before the last section, I have made the minim into 4 counts to create an easier entry into the ‘A Tempo’ section at the start of the accelerando.
