Battle of Rising Spirits

An ethereal, but intense, rolled section opens the piece building to a dramatic climax. Bursts of sixteenth notes flying up and down the instrument make this both fun and play and impressive to watch. The slow middle section employs independent rolls in both hands before returning to the allegro section and ending the same as the beginning, but in a major key.
