3, known in English as Chinese Tambourine or Chinese Drum, is a piece by composer Fritz Kreisler for Violin and Piano.
It is one of his most well-known pieces behind his Old Viennese Melodies and Praeludium and Allegro.
[1] The piece is inspired from a performance of traditional Chinese music heard by the composer while they visited San Francisco.
[2] As such, the piece is highly inspired by the pentatonic scale, though Kreisler said that he did not take any thematic information from his visit.
