Loaded with joyful and optimistic character, this original piece presents two contrasting themes. Moving from the initial rhythmic, fiddling style section into the warm lyricism of an old Celtic air and back to the rhythmic theme, all parts are musically engaging and encourage cohesive energy in the ensemble. Featured syncopation, some third position for the 1st violins, and rapid string crossing figures provide just the right amount of challenge. Clever bow technique and fun rolled into one!
