I wrote this for my grandson, Andrew.

My first theme in the minor section of this waltz is quite chromatic. And this is typical of anything written in minor that is not modal.

This theme is very similar to one of Dvořák's Slavonic Dances. It is called "Starodávný", which means "From Long Ago" in the Czech language.
