This was peppy and enjoyable! It reminded me of a song I would have learned while taking piano lessons, as an example of rhythmic elements. (Syncopation? It's been a minute since I had music theory, and I wasn't good at it.) The composer I remember from way back was Norman Dello Joio, and the book was "Suite for the Young" for piano. Gosh did I love it. Thank you for giving me happy nostalgic feelings!
I love how meandering the melody is. Feels like it could just keep ambling along forever, like one of those old panorama paintings of the Mississippi that just scroll and scroll, mile after mile.
