Trois Polkas de Salon

Three Salon Polkas Op.7 (F sharp major, F minor, E major).

Smetana was a great lover of polka; a dance he had composed from his youth and had made it famous through his operas, chamber and symphonic works. Three polkas for Piano, in F sharp major, F minor and E flat major, grouped together in a cycle Op.7 are a demonstration of Smetana's supreme compositional mastery.
