Dance of the Witches for string quartet by Roman Placzek is a fun and exciting fantasy work. The composer states, "It's an incidental, program piece. Four witches are waking up in their den after a night of whatever witches do that makes them so vile and evil, heads hurting, all messed up, and hung over. Slowly but surely they get ready for their day, start dancing and brewing and drinking their poisons getting more and more wild but also more in sync with each others rhythms. At the end the confusion and drunkenness, disorder and chaos kicks in again. The last two measures represent a sudden outside disturbance and them flying away in a hurry. The end." Score and parts are included. (4'45") Grade IV-V.
