Autumn is a glorious time of year! The air cools, streets smell of fireplaces, and the trees burst into a one final display of loud amber and gold before they disappear into the silence of winter. Several variations of the main theme explore varying keys, time signatures and styles. The piece builds to a joyous finale, when all the variations overlap in a cacophony of jubilant counterpoint. Upbeat and festive! (3:45)
