Description

Each movement functions as a sketch of a childhood memory. The first movement depicts a neighborhood game of hide and seek. The third movement is meant to musically depict a day at the lake waterskiing and riding fast boats and jet skis. The shifting time signatures and syncopated rhythms will present a fun challenge for intermediate and advanced players.
