ARABIAN DANCE FROM THE NUTCRACKER BY TCHAIKOVSKY

 
First produced in 1892, during a time that Europeans, particularly the English, were enamored with the exoticism and eroticism of the East: The Orient, India and Arabia. Men were said to swoon in their seats during this dance, much to the annoyance of their wives, I am sure.
