Product Description

Nocturno Isleño is a nocturne for string orchestra, with a strong Cuban influence. Composed at a grade 3 level, the piece serves as a musical exploration designed to enhance rhythmic sensibilities, focusing particularly on syncopations, and the allure of the D harmonic scale.

Inspired by the rich musical heritage of Cuba, Nocturno Isleño draws from the rhythmic language of popular Cuban genres, notably the bolero and the danzón. The composition also weaves in elements of folk- loric music, creating a harmonious blend that reflects the vibrant musical culture found on the enchanting Cuban Isle.

This composition was commissioned by the New Canon Project, a partnership between the American Choral Directors Association, the American String Teachers Association, and Rising Tide Music Press, with support of the Sphinx Venture Fund and the National Endowment for the Arts.

I hope Nocturno Isleño, in addition to teaching musical and technical skills, can inspire curiosity and enthusiasm for Cuban music.
