An American Tapestry is a continuous medley of three American folk songs:Šthe happy-go-luckyŠ
The Girl I Left Behind Me, the somberand reflectiveŠ
He's Gone Away, and the foot-stompin' hoedownŠ
Ol' Dan Tucker. The setting was originally composed for chamber winds (11 players) and has been completely rescored by the composer in this new edition for full wind ensemble. The contrasting tempi and sentimentsof the tunes, enlivened with unique and colorful harmonies and instrume ntation, contribute to make this appealing for wind players from high school to professional.
