This solo is incredibly unique, and a very welcome departure from the standard 4 mallet solo from a method book. It's in a very fun key with a lot of interesting techniques that are uncommon in most songs, and it's fast tempo makes it a fun and rewarding challenge. Fantastic solo overall.

I played this and it is amazing. But if you own any dogs that aren't used to the high register then get prepared for a show. My dogs continued on barking but I kept learning, so when you get this piece be ready and make sure that your mom is ok with the high register also cause it is loud. Overall a wonderful piece and I think everyone should learn this piece just cause.

Great Piece

REALLY fun piece to play. Not hard for an intermediate player, but well worth the 6 dollars. It is kind of short, but it is really inexpensive so get it now!!!

Fun :)
