Remember how you felt as a child when you ran outside to play in the rain? That joy and childlike abandon is the spirit of this African-influenced work, “Dancing In The Rain.” A percussion groove complete with rain stick gives a foundation for the simple dancing song that is played by every instrument at some time during the piece. Tuneful countermelodies and rhythmic clapping by the winds joining with the percussion groove make this very fun to play and perform! Your students will feel like they are truly “Dancing in the Rain!” (3:00)
