Onward Christian Soldiers

The piece begins with a lengthy introduction based on a spritely motif taken from the theme. The first theme statement in the solo is gently modified and then goes into a short modulation. The theme is then presented in the piano while the solo adds an effervescent obbligato. This continues on in this manner until it comes to a climatic close.
