This piece takes the listener on an exciting adventure through a foreign country. A group of tourists start the day by hopping on their tour bus. The opening feeling of anticipation is created by an upbeat rhythmic pattern that forms the A Section. The piece continues as the bus takes us to three destinations, each captured in a somewhat different melody, but all at the same tempo. Each of the three stops offers a distinctly different flavor that the listener should easily sense. As the tour ends, the bus returns back to its starting point which is represented by a return to the A section. A rousing musical coda means it’s been a great day, now it’s time to go back to the hotel for a meal and get some rest. The Sightseeing Bus is a delightful piece that will be enjoyed by performers and audiences alike! Who knows, perhaps it will even inspire some to book their first bus tour?
