The famous
Golliwogg's Cakewalk is
the final piece from
Debussy's cycle
Children's Corner which
consists of 6 miniatures
for piano, written for
his daughter in the years
1906-1908. The style
corresponds to that of
ragtime, a dance which
was in vogue around the
turn of the century. In
the middle section, he
parodies several times
the beginning of the
opera Tristan and Isolde
by Richard Wagner with
whom Debussy had a rather
ambiguous relationship.
The present arrangement
now allows musicians to
play the popular movement
in a version for melodic
instrument with
accompaniment.
