A Sertaneja

Description

To Her, from the Hinterlands A Sertaneja: "To Her, from the Hinterlands," originally composed for voice and piano, musically paints a picture of Chiquinha's love of the hinterland --- the land behind the body of water --- Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Through flowing slurs, dotted rhythms, 3/4 time in D minor, and the passing of melody between the strings, Di�n Morales's level 2 arrangement celebrates the lapping waters around Rio de Janeiro and a graceful dance from Brazilian culture by one of its beloved composers, Chiquinha Gonzaga. Students will love playing A Sertaneja. (2:00)
