Tucson Suite (fl, vln, vc)

Barbara Holm

About this work:
four movements: Rodeo Parade (2:44), Sabino Canyon (4:03), Festival (1:52), and Sonoran Sunset (2:03) Tucson Suite was inspired by the culture and natural beauty of Tucson, Arizona. Rodeo Parade: Each February since 1925 the people of Tucson have celebrated the cowboys with the Tucson Rodeo Parade. It is the largest non-motorized parade in the country. Sabino Canyon is on the northeastern edge of the Sonoran Desert, in the foothills of the Santa Catalina mountain range. The Sabino Creek flows through hills dotted with Giant Seguaro cacti and framed by tall, massive stone cliffs. Festival is a fugue that is simply intended to express the happiness of people gathered to celebrate. Sonoran Sunset, the beautiful colors while the sun sets over the Sonoran Desert, bring to mind the joys of the days experiences.
