Digital Sheet Music

By Fred Onovwerosuoke

Item Number: A0.947347

The first movement, Beethoven Returns to Africa, is a satirical perspective on the discussion of the possible African roots of the legendary composer. The work is nuanced in rhythmic and harmonic ideas and thus should be performed with great fun.Each movement in Four More Dances for Wind Quintet was inspired by a variety of rhythmic idioms. There’s ample influences from dance and folk materials researched from field studies around Africa, each movement following the basic structure of opening, development, recapitulation and closing.
