    Three American Sketches (I. Frog Went A-Courtin', II. Come All Ye Fair and Tender Ladies, III. Sweet Betsy from Pike) - Traditional / arr. Michael Story

    Three American Sketches is a wonderful folk medley with a contemporary flair in three short movements. The first, "Frog Went A-Courtin'," provides a hint of Grainger. The second movement, "Come All Ye Fair and Tender Ladies" is a bit darker in nature with a solemn melody. The joyous conclusion is the contemporary rendition of "Sweet Betsy from Pike." This is superb literature for both teaching and programming. (4:22)

    To a Wild Rose - Edward MacDowell

    Edward MacDowell can be regarded as the first great American composer, although he disliked the idea of being classified as any sort of musical nationalist. He composed a large number of orchestral works but it is the charming and unpretentious suite of musical miniatures, Woodland Sketches, that has survived as his best-known work, with To a Wild Rose being the most popular. Philip Sparke has expertly arranged this simple work for concert band.
