Wood's Bolero incorporates elements of both the American and Spanish versions of the bolero dance. The fun Spanish rock feel, evoking flamenco dancing and even the excitement of a bull fighting arena, comes from the urgent rhythms and modal harmonies common to boleros of all types and rock itself. The rock aspects can be emphasized with the use of the optional rock and roll rhythm section consisting of piano, guitar, bass, and drums. Wood's Bolero may be performed by Grade 2 string orchestras and above, Grade 3 orchestras and above, or both levels together.
