Song Production Information
The Waltz of the Big Dog (Valse du Grande Chien) was a waltz composed for a solo pianist by Virkato Wakhmaninov (1873-1974).
Virkato had a large dog, and from time to time would chase his own tail.
The spinning of the dog, going round and round and round at such a high speed, is said to have inspired him to make this song.
Of the 17 waltzes that had supposedly been written by Virkato, this is the only known one that he had released.
The other 16 waltzes that he made were never released, and in his will, he stipulated that they should not be released.
There are several theories of why he never released the music. The most prominent theory states that he was bitter about the criticism and taunts about his music and as a way of revenge, he would never release his other waltzes.
This theory has been heavily criticized, however.
