Par ESPLO HAAKON. Nice Day for a Stroll depicts just this, a leisurely stroll around the park. Make sure the piece is not played too fast. With its light jazz touch, the rhythm and the triplets should rather be a bit behind to get the right style. All instruments have small solo parts and melodies that change. The piece is easy to listen to for the audience and will fit well for almost any concert…

Neither performe…
