ANDALUSIA - Parts & Score

Grade: 4.0
 
 
 
This Hugh Stuart original captures the spirit and color of Andalusia, the large ancient province of Spain where much of that country's tradition and culture was developed. After a driving introduction, a dramatic trumpet cadenza conjures up images of a heroic matador which leads into the main theme. This lilting melody in 3/4 time is flavored with interesting harmonies and rythmic variation as smooth inner lines weave their way through the texture.
