RISSOLTY ROSSOLTY is ideal for high school festival orchestras, while still of great interest to college and professional ensembles. Composed in 1939 for a radio show introducing audiences to American folk music, RISSOLTY ROSSOLTY is warmly entertaining yet surprisingly complex. Some elements are reminiscent of both Copland and Ives, and Crawford’s inventiveness is on full display, juggling three different tunes into a mesmerizing polyphonic dance. Complete set of score and parts published.
