The famous
Golliwogg's Cakewalk is
the final piece from
Debussy's cycle Childrens
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.
