Robert Nathaniel Dett (1882-1943) was born in Canada before moving to the Unites States at the age of 11. He began studying piano at an early age and went on to be the first black American to graduate from Oberlin Conservatory of Music.  Throughout his career he worked as a composer, organist, pianist, choral director and music professor; he received many awards for his music and writing and spent a period at the Fontainebleau School of Music south of Paris where he studied with Nadia Boulanger.  Dett became well known for incorporating tunes and and elements of African American folk songs and spirituals into classical music.

Cave of the Winds was composed in 1902 whilst Dett was living in Niagara Falls, NY and was first published the same year. The title refers to a natural cavern behind a waterfall at Niagara Falls which existed until 1955.
