This calypso-style original reflects on the mixing pot of diversity of the composer’s hometown of Silver Spring, Maryland. With its groovy bass line, syncopated rhythms, and lively melody, this piece leaves no room for a dull moment.  The piece starts in G major and segues into a contrasting B section in E minor, resuming back to the original melody with style and grace.
