Round 5: Tossup 11

A dance from this country is the basis of a Vittorio Monti showpiece often performed on violin. A piece titled for being from this country opens with the notes (read slowly) “long C-sharp, up to short F-sharp, long A, short F-sharp, long E-sharp.” That 2/4 time piece, the fifth of a set of dances named for being (15[1])from this country, is based on this country’s (*) csárdás (“CHAR-dosh”) dance. It’s not Scotland, but a type of “snap” pizzicato is named for this (-5[1])country’s composer (10[1])of Concerto for Orchestra. For 10 points, a set of 21 dances by Johannes Brahms are named for being from what home country of Béla (10[2]0[1])Bartók? ■END■
