Inspired by the
poem of 19th century English poet Christina Rossetti (also the author
of "In the Bleak Midwinter"), Frog and Toad provides
a wonderful change of pace. The frog theme is lighthearted in a major
key, while the toad theme is plodding and in a minor key (though
there are no formal key changes in the music). This fun piece is full
of contrasting dynamics, articulations, and styles. Clever!
