Program Notes

A great new edition of Karl L. King’s classic circus piece with a happy ragtime beat. Originally written to accompany a “trick horse” act with the Barnum & Bailey’s Circus, the tune soon became so popular that it was used for a wide variety of acts including clown “walk-a-bouts”. Bob Foster’s arrangement retains all of the color and excitement of the original.
