Answer:
Trepak is one dance from a set of dances found in Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker, a ballet from 1892. It is a Russian dance featuring squat-kicks and an energetic rhythm. The instrumentation features a tambourine with the strings and woodwinds that enlivens the rhythm and orchestral sound.
Step-by-step explanation:
Trepak (in Russian: Трепак; in Ukrainian: Трoпак, Трiпак) is one of several ethnic dances in the famous ballet by Piotr Ilyich Tchaikovski's The Nutcracker. It is based on the traditional Ukrainian folk dance known in Ukraine as the Tropak or Tripak.
Trepak is often also referred to as "Russian Dance" (the other ethnic ballet dances have double names, so, for example, "Tea" is also "Chinese Dance"). The "Trepak" is the most popular ballet dance, the same could also be said of the "Dance of the Sugar Fairy" and the "Waltz of the Flowers", which are heard more frequently than the "Trepak". Dance makes much use of Ukrainian folk ethnic melodies.
