Milhaud - Cinema - fantaisie after “Le boeuf sur le toit“

“..I assembled a few popular melodies, tangos, maxixes, sambas and even a Portugese fado, and transcribed them with a rondo-like theme recurring between each successive pair. [...] I thought that the character of this music might make it suitable for an accompaniment to one of Charlie Chaplin’s films“ (Note: this idea was never realised).
