Description:
The Cuban composer and pianist Ernesto Lecuona (1896-1963) wrote many works labelled as "Afro-Cuban," and sorting them all can be difficult. While some are lost and others are scattered about, the 1930 piano suite titled Danzas Afro-Cubanas, a collection of six of the dances, remains a core group in the style. The fifth dance in the suite, Danza Lucumí, is upbeat with a bit a strong rhythmic pulse. This version for full orchestra has been arranged by Felix Guenther (1886-1951). Instrumentation: 2(2nd dPicc).2.2.2: 3Sax(AAT): 4.3.3.1: Perc(2-4): Hp: Str (3 Vn pts[6-6-5-]-7-6-5): PF Cond in set.
