Product Description

"Mobile Carnival Rag-Tango" is a captivating solo piano composition by the versatile composer Donald Ashwander. This dynamic piece takes listeners on a thrilling and unexpected musical journey through the colorful and enigmatic world of Mardi Gras, offering a unique blend of ragtime and tango styles.

The story behind "Mobile Carnival Rag-Tango" reveals the fascinating evolution of a composer's creative process. Initially conceived as a reflection of the exuberant and joyous atmosphere of Mardi Gras, Donald Ashwander set out to capture the frantic gaiety that characterizes this celebrated event. However, as he began to compose, the music took an unexpected turn, veering into darker and more mysterious territory.

Rather than resisting this creative detour, Donald chose to embrace it. He allowed the music to lead him on an uncharted path, surrendering to the muse's guidance. The result is a composition that defies conventional expectations and leads the listener into a realm that is completely unpremeditated, a place where light and shadow dance together in a mesmerizing musical tapestry.

The final page of the sheet music contains special program notes by Donald Ashwander.
