A moderate tempo classic 1930’s era Calypso from Atilla the Hun (Raymond Quevado), but arranged in a modern style for steel band. Interesting twists and turns in the melody; fun counter lines for the Cellos in the “Trio” section, and a driving “Two-Drop” feel for the bass and drums make this a great addition for your band. Short but powerful.
This beautiful aria is often erroneously attributed to J.S. Bach due to its inclusion in the Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach, but was most likely written by the German composer Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel.
