Sheet Music

The tune for this piece is taken from an African-American spiritual.  It begins and ends in the key of A major, moving into C major as it develops, then gracefully back to A major to end.

This is a rhythmic piece set in a Mixolydian mode. The first part starts with the mode on "G" then moves it to a "D" for an expressive middle section. It does a Da Capo back to the mode on "G", ending with a coda on a G7 chord with a suspended 4th. It's a musical adventure with a safari theme!

This familiar waltz has been arranged in the key of G Major for the intermediate student.
