Polovtsian Dances no. 17, “Polovtsian Dance with Chorus”

~ Work

Annotation

this is the concert arrangement of Prince Igor: Act II. Polovtsian Dance with Choir, completed after the composer's death. the "no. 17" apparently refers to its place in the track number sequence in Prince Igor if the opening Overture were not counted, eg see https://beta.musicbrainz.org/release/3c867e84-3fef-336a-853d-d54b426c0aa0
