She has been acclaimed to be the first important American woman composer. As a child Amy was allowed rather than encouraged to further her obvious musical talent. She wrote in a mature and virtuosic style for piano with use of chromaticism, fine melodic lines, and Impressionistic styles. This is her Katy-dids set for clarinet quintet or clarinet choir by John Gibson. A katy did is a type of cricket and this piece would classify as a rhythm game. Can you keep up with the cricket rhythms?
