Detailed Description

Concert band Symphonic Band - Grade 5

SKU: BF.BM494-SET

Composed by George Gershwin. Arranged by Douglas McLain. Baton Music Orchestral Series. Full Score and set of parts. Duration 10:00. Baton Music #BM494-SET. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM494-SET).

George Gershwin composed his 'Cuban Overture' in July and August 1932. Originally was the work titled 'Rumba' and was the result of a two-week holiday which Gershwin took in Havana, Cuba in February 1932. The overture is dominated by Caribbean rhythms and Cuban native percussion, with a wide spectrum of instrumental color and technique. It is a rich and exciting work with complexity and sophistication, illustrating the influence of Cuban music and dance. Its main theme was influenced by a then current hit by Ignacio Piñeiro, 'Échale Salsit'.
