Performance Notes: 

The key signatures are well within the abilities of the middle school to high school band as it goes back and forth between F minor and F major.  The obligato part is passed back and forth between Flutes/Oboes and the Clarinets at letter E through F.  The feeling of this section should be joyous.  The mood at Letter G should be forboding as the piece ends in F minor.  The Drum Set part can be played by three seperate musicians on Snare, Bass, and Cymbal with toys.  Also, the snare player will enjoy the rudemental drum part at letter F.

Performance Level:  Grade 3
