Rococo Promenade is based on the Baroque French overture style with a galloping fugal middle section before a return to the jaggedly dotted style of the beginning.

Afternoon Divertimento alternates a calm, lullaby-like mood with bursts of frenzied energy typical of a weekend afternoon.

Get Reel portrays a whimsically reeling, roiling, reel (really!) with rapid and smoothly flowing figures.

Holiday Glide features clockwork precision interpolated with slides and glides and glissandi.
