These 18 pieces were composed in 1898 and feature compositions which represent mainly cultural aspects of the countries Russia, Austria, Italy, France, Spain, America, Japan, China, India and Turkey. I like, that most pieces don't sound too cliché but have an own, believable and natural feeling expression to them. At most i was surprised by the pieces from Japan, Turkey and China. I think Rebikov really took a lot from the cultures and learned main aspects. I like the pieces Vienne, Dans la grotte d`azure, Seguidillas, Siang keang long, Pontzi and Derviche the most. In the last piece I can really imagine the Derviches dancing around, trance like, with there flying clothes in the middle part. Seen in the context, I also like the last piece. To me it shows a nice ambivalence between being back at home, being exhausted and just being super happy about all the incredible experiences in the world. The end is shouting joy, to me.
