This is an arrangement written for combined award-winning, literacy-based intermediate and advanced orchestras at an elementary magnet school in Houston's upscale Meyerland community. As the score indicates, the various violin parts (1st, 2nd, 3rd, intermediate) can be distributed flexibly according to whatever provides the best balance with a given ensemble.

Performance problems are minimal for a group with a reasonable degree of technical mastery, working knowledge of basic music theory, and a reasonable level of reading proficiency. Some concentrated work may be necessary on the intermediate violin part, in which there are no open G notes but rather G-sharps, i.e., first-finger-low on the G-string. Players on that and other inner voices should perhaps be given some advance preparation for playing the accidentals within their parts.
