This is an early novelty cakewalk best described as Rossini meets ragtime for reasons that will become apparent when you hear it. The first half is played mostly out of first position until the trio when there is complete change of style where mostly 'bass/treble solos' are used. It was originally written in 4/4 time but I have arranged it in the more familiar 2/4 time. The score and midi are in the library...Steve.
