Dr. Dominique-René de Lerma has compiled a Works list which can be found at the William Grant Still page of AfriClassical.com The entry for “Miniatures” indicates that “Yaravi” is from Peru. It goes on to say:
”Dedication: Sir John and Lady Barbirolli. 'This suite is based on folk songs of the Americas, and is a souvenir of the visit to America of Sir John and Lady Barbiolli, and of the many friends made by them during their stay.' Duration: 12:14.”
