MacDowell - Woodland Sketches, Op. 51 for the Piano (Palmer)
This suite of tone poems has survived as MacDowell's best-known work. Included among the 10 pieces are the familiar miniatures, "To a Wild Rose" and "Will o' the Wisp." The last work of the set, "Told at Sunset" reiterates a considerable amount of thematic material from earlier works, making the suite especially effective when performed in its entirety. The pieces are similar in difficulty to "Sea Pieces," Op. 55.
