Orchestral scherzo. This was based on the same row as Challenger: Symphony and serves as a companion piece. Whereas Challenger is dark and serious, this piece is sparkly and playful. When my granddaughter was 4, she would answer every request to pick up toys with “not quite yet”. That seemed to be a good name for a piece. So this one’s dedicated to her.
