Maryland, My Maryland. Par HERZOG EDGAR. After initially introducing the theme in a mere „cloud of sound', the piece, then, starts off in a Cajun/New Orleans groove.

Shortly after the climax - Is it the turkey or the presents? - the festivities are concluded in a short and classical manner. But, wait! It is a little musical joke that finally rounds the evening off. intermediate/ Recueil / Flûte Traversière Hautbois, Clarinette, Cor en Fa/
