| Description: This is a set of three original dance-like compositions that are reflections on American pioneer life. The 'Blackwater Two-Step' is a stylized fiddle-tune in three-part setting with a briliant ending. 'The Cowboy Waltz' is a sentimental waltz with beautiful counterpoint. 'Goin' Fishin' is a high-spirited dance-like piece with dialog between the upper and lower strings. Includes an optional piano. |
