Clare Grundman will be long remembered for his exquisite symphonic works of American music, and American Folk Rhapsody has remained one of his most beloved. This superb piece, originally written in 1948, is a wonderful example of his exceptional writing/arranging skills. Including: My Little Mohee (more commonly known as On Top of Old Smokey); Shantyman's Life; Sourwood Mountain and Sweet Betsy from Pike, this is an outstanding, proven work for both concert and contest. Perfect for band directors who know this work well and want to work with strings!
