Black Cinderella is a lovely ragtime two-step and cakewalk with delightful chord changes. Its form is AABBACCC with a 4-bar introduction and an 8-bar interlude before the final C-strain which is itself played an octave higher than the first iteration. The keys used are F- and Bb-major for the AB- and C-strains respectively. For the final C-strain in this adaptation for recorder quintet, the 1st tenor has the rare honour of alternating to descant when taking the upper melody line. Great stuff indeed!
