Description
Sixteenth-note runs dart across shifting meters, passing between parts before landing firmly in 3/4 time in this exciting piece in G minor for intermediate to advanced groups. As the accompaniment buzzes with intensity, dark themes emerge from the low voices, reaching down to the C strings of the cellos and violas, settling into a languid glide, and back again into a furious conclusion. Precision, musicianship, and ensemble playing skills are at the forefront of this exciting piece, which is sure to dazzle audiences and young musicians alike.

I play violin and there's no school since it's summer, but right now I'm learning this song and I put my AirPods on and play along with the song. I love it!

I love Doug Spata's refusal to use Italian tempo marks, this one just says "fast" 😂

I play viola, and in my orchestra, we had to do collé and spiccato during the duration of the song with this speed, so it was very hard.
