Composed by
the Czech composer
Bohuslav Martinu in 1927,
The Kitchen Revue is a
ballet initially created
for a sextet. This score
was reviewed and tailored
for an orchestra. This
ballet, talking about the
life of kitchen utensils,
is divided in ten
sections: 1. Prologue
(Allegretto) 2.
Introduction (Tempo de
marche) 3. Danse du
moulinet autour du
caudron (Poco meno) 4.
Danse du chaudron et du
couvercle (Allegro) 5.
Tango (Danse d'amour.
Lento) 6. Duel (Poco a
poco allegro. Tempo di
Charleston) 7. Entracte
(Lamentation du chaudron.
Allegro moderato) 8.
Marche funebre (Adagio)
9. Danse radieuse (Tempo
di marche) 10. Fin du
drame (Allegretto) The
story focuses on the
marriage of the Pot and
Lid which is put at risk
by the Twirling Stick,
and the music features
some strong jazz
influences. Bohuslav
Martinu (1890-1959) also
wrote 13 other ballets,
15 operas and 6
symphonies and some
orchestral and chamber
music.
