Dance of the Mountain Raindrops more information
selected for the 1992 inaugural broadcast of the
RTS national television series Svetska Premijera (World Premiere) (Serbia)

Duration: 8:45

The title refers to a gentle, warm, summer rain falling over the lush vegetation of the Great Smoky Mountains, an area in which the composer has spent many hours and hiked many miles. Raindrops seem to dance as they splash off moss covered logs and drip from the leaves of dense rhododendron. Stylistically, the piece traverses several styles, including minimalism, traditional writing, and jazz.
