About this arrangement

Piano Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.710771 Composed by Claude Debussy. Arranged by Thomas Jancso. 20th Century. Score. 4 pages. Thomas Jancso #6115053. Published by Thomas Jancso (A0.710771). Golliwogg's Cakewalk from Children's Corner by Debussy  At the time of its composition, Golliwoggs were in fashion, due partly to the popularity at that time of the novels of Florence Kate Upton ("golliwog" is a later usage). They were stuffed black dolls with red pants, red bow ties and wild hair, somewhat reminiscent of the blackface minstrels of the time. The cakewalk was a dance or a strut, and the dancer with the most elaborate steps won a cake ("took the cake"). The piece is a ragtime with its syncopations and banjo-like effects. The dynamic range is quite large and very effective.
