Product description
Cave of the Winds was originally written by Robert Nathanial Dett as a march for piano and subtitled “March and Two Step”. Devon Morales arranged this boisterous, carnival romp with lightness and frivolity at a Level 3. Students will enjoy performing chromatic scales, hooked bows, and triplet 16th notes to create a playful rendition of a march which was said to have been admired by John Philip Sousa. Morales' instrumentation provides a clarity to this march, allowing the melody to shine through while the other voices bounce along underneath. Cave of the Winds by Dett, arranged by Morales, is a fun and entertaining piece for players and audiences alike!
Robert Nathaniel Dett (1882 - 1943) was a Canadian-American composer, organist, pianist, choirmaster and professor of music. Born and raised in Canada until the age of 11, he moved with his family to the United States, where he spent most of his professional education and career. During his lifetime, he was one of the leading black composers, known for using African American folk songs and spirituals as the basis for his choral and piano works in the romantic style of 19th-century classical music.
