Dandelion and Azure is based on and inspired by the Fisk University alma mater song, titled The Gold and Blue, by John W. Work. Dandelion and Azure are respective synonyms for Gold and Blue. This particular composition utilizes a moderately fast tempo in septuple meter, displayed by alternating measures of 4/4 and 3/4 time signatures. Melodies and rhythms consist mostly of highly syncopated passages of eighth and sixteenth notes, borrowed from jazz and ragtime music with a few subtle references to The Gold and Blue.
