Valse Des Grands Bancs

Waltz · 3/4 · C major

Valse Des Grands Bancs is a traditional waltz of uncertain origin, reflecting the folk music heritage of French-speaking North America. Set in three-four meter and the key of C major, it is characterized by a flowing and lyrical melodic shape that is well-suited for social dancing. Because its exact historical background and composer are not documented, musicians interpret the piece with a smooth, expressive phrasing typical of standard regional fiddle traditions.
