Written in a D minor/modal tonality, this work quickly moves from a singing style of 84 beats per minute, to a moving 138. The meter is 3/4 throughout with all the instrumental ranges very modest.
About FJH Young Band
Appropriate for middle school and smaller high school groups. Second clarinets usually stay below the break. Parts are written with more independence, and instrumentation increases slightly. There is still adequate doubling in the lower voices. Grades 2 - 2.5
