Autograph manuscript, Hopi Snake Dance for two pianos, K.138, [1948]
An extensive draft for this work inspired by a native American dance.

Incomplete working manuscript with extensive cancellations and revisions, in pencil, 19 leaves, 348 x 268mm, on 14-stave paper, paginated 2-16, 16(bis), 19, 21 and an unnumbered page of sketches; the versos have drafts of fanfares for Corneille's Horace; with a related leaf of autograph notes, and a copy with autograph annotations of the Danse roumaine for piano (K. 151, 1949), 2 pages.

Provenance:
(1) Alde, Paris, 17 June 2016, lot 198.

The work was inspired by a dance of the Hopi tribe of Arizona, apparently after a visit to Hopi territories by Jolivet's teacher, the American-based composer Edgard Varèse: dedicated to Darius Milhaud, it was first performed at the Tanglewood Festival, 10 August 1948.
