Program Notes

Exuberant and entertaining, this dynamic work is written all in one tempo and is perfect as a concert opener or festival number. The tongue-in-cheek style is combined with some jazzy elements while featuring brief solos for flute, clarinet and bassoon or tenor sax. Definitely not just some "song and dance."
