About this item
The introduction imitates the sound of a train coming down the tracks. The piece maintains the same energy level throughout, and all parts are given interesting material. To help fill out the ensemble sound, the piano adds some color that does not appear in the string parts. Optional violin 3 (viola) part included. All aboard!
