I played this in 10th grade and had the solo part. I still listen to it occasionally and every time it reminds me how wonderful my orchestra director was and how much I miss all my wonderful classmates. Music can hold so many memories.

My favorite part has to be when the 1st violins have a solo and the 2nd violins have the pizzicato part. It is so much fun to play.
