Pippa's Parade introduces call and response/canon along with ties across the bar line while using the first 6 notes + concert A Natural. After the upper/lower call and response in the intro, there is an attainable melody and bassline. Both parts were written to include instances of moving notes to keep your students engaged. At the end of the work, the call and response switched to woodwind/brass, coming together with a fun delayed ending.

Pippa was our loving companion for 8 years. She passed unexpectedly in November of 2023, and I honored her memory in the best way I knew how. She loved to play and her love was infectious. This work emulates her joyful spirit with an exciting melody and exciting call and response, just like when when we used to play.
