Best known for his settings of spirituals and influence on Dvorák, Henry T. Burleigh was a celebrated baritone, and a prolific composer of original works. This suite of six atmospheric scenes of the American south, inspired by Black musical and cultural traditions, is well within reach of intermediate pianists and artistically suited for professional recitals.

I. Through Moaning Pines
II. The Frolic
III. In the Cold Moonlight
IV. A Jubilee
V. On Bended Knees
VI. A New Hiding Place
