This piece was my first foray into "film music," although the short film it was written for was never made. It was to be about a couple that goes to the beach on holiday, but it rains the entire time, so they are shut up in a room together, getting on each other's nerves. I was asked for "A Coney Island feeling, but a little off kilter," so I wrote a carousel waltz. It was originally composed for the reed organ, but since I never perform on the organ, I later arranged it for mandolin and guitar. The first performance was given on June 2, 2002 at the Takoma Park Presbyterian Church, with guitarist Steve Smith.
