Composed by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Arranged by Richard Decker. This edition: audio, pdf. 20th Century, Chamber, Contest, Festival, Multicultural, Romantic Period, World. 33 pages. Charles Decker Music Press #993610. Published by Charles Decker Music Press (A0.1411275).


This woodwind quintet arrangement captures the subtle textures of the composer’s chromatic harmonies inspired in the original vocal octet by a poem by T. B. Aldrich.
Born of an African father, Coleridge-Taylor was an early 20th century English composer and conductor who was an influential advocate for Black composers. One of Coleridge-Taylor's rare A Cappella compositions, this is arranged for traditional woodwind quintet of flute, oboe, clarinet, horn and basson and includes substitute parts clarinet in B-flat for oboe, alto saxophone in E-flat for horn and bass clarinet in B-flat for bassoon. Sea Drift is infused with descriptive tone-color painting highlighting the tragic story of the merchant sailor who perishes in a stormy sea to the despair of his lover onshore.
