Grade 3.5-4 This piece captures the essence of your stereotypical desert song. Gusts of winds blowing sand periodically as a weary traveler makes his way to a nearby town. The song incorporates changes in the meter, tempo, and key all throughout its duration. Along with that, there are many parts of the song where it focuses on certain sections of the ensemble, such as your woodwinds, middle voices, or low brass. Enjoy.
