Just like the piece says: it's all about counting beats, rhythms, and rests. Students can fall into the trap of forgetting to count. This piece makes it easy to teach the young ensemble all at the same time, as the rhythms are identical. It works in eight-bar phrases and then the rhythm changes. The piano part greatly assists in feeling subdivisions of longer notes and has a boogie-woogie feel. (3:15).
