Ecossaise - Ecossaise (English spelling) French

Japanese: エコセーズ - えこせーず(英語表記)écossaise フランス語
Ecossaise - Ecossaise (English spelling) French

A dance. It means "Scottish tune." There are two theories about its origin: (1) a Scottish dance of moderate tempo accompanied by bagpipes, and (2) a dance created "in the Scottish style" in 17th-century France. However, what is generally called ecossaise is a fast, vigorous dance in 2/4 time that was newly fashionable in Vienna in the 19th century. Works by Beethoven, Schubert, and Weber are based on this new style.

Japanese:

舞曲。「スコットランドの曲」の意。起源に関しては、(1)バッグパイプが伴奏する中庸の速度のスコットランド舞踊、(2)17世紀フランスで「スコットランド風に」つくられた舞曲、という二つの説がある。しかし、一般にエコセーズとよばれるのは、19世紀にウィーンで新しく流行した4分の2拍子の急速で激しい踊りである。ベートーベン、シューベルト、ウェーバーの作品は、この新しい様式による。
