First performed in New York City on January 23, 1896 by the Boston Symphony Orchestra, MacDowell's Suite No. 2 or 'Indian' suite so impressed the faculty members of Columbia University that the composer was offered the school's first music professorship. A superb example of MacDowell's mature romantic style, the music is all original despite the descriptive subtitle and programmatic movement titles added after the work's completion. The easy-to-read, digitally enhanced study score offered here is an unabridged reprint of the score first issued in 1897 by MacDowell's German publisher, Breitkopf und Härtel of Leipzig.

MacDowell composed his first symphonic poem in 1884 while living in Germany. Apparently it received its premiere there the next year, accompanied by publication. The US premiere did not take place until 1893, when the Boston Symphony performed the piece under the baton of Arthur Nikisch. This new score is a digitally enhanced reprint of the 1885 score issued by Julius Hainauer in Breslau.
