Anitra's Dance
Anitra's Dance is a piece of music from Grieg's Peer Gynt. A performance of it by the San Francisco Symphony & Chorus was released by Philips in 1983.
The tail end of it features an isolated A minor chord, which was subsequently sampled and included on disk 65 of the official Emulator II library. From there, it was inevitably resampled into other samplers, ultimately ending up on several tracks in the 1980s and 1990s, presumably with the artists involved unaware of its origin.
