You will hear the clicking of horse hooves and the sounds of the old west in this setting of a standard American folk song. Virginia Croft draws from her experience as a longtime music educator to write pleasing arrangements of popular folk songs like this one. She has a knack for bringing out the true beauty of the song in an authentic way. All sections of the orchestra get a chance to shine in Red River Valley.This is one of those love songs which traveled west with the pioneers, and thus the Bright Mohawk Valley of New York State became the Red River Valley. Attention to the unrelenting rhythm of the horses’ hooves (and the suggested sound effects which complement this) will bring this beautiful, poignant melody to life for both your performers and your audiences. NB: This tune, played and sung up-tempo, is also used as a well-known square dance.

Red River Station is a bright and upbeat work emulating the style popularized by the soundtrack of the great American west. After the Civil War, cattle drives from Texas to Kansas included a stop at Red River Station along the Chisholm Trail, just before leaving Texas. The syncopated rhythms and pentatonic melodies bring to the life the vibrant and beautiful landscape and experience of riding horseback through the southwest. The energetic and inventive orchestration and exciting nature of this work make it an excellent fit for any concert, and a great contest or festival selection.
