VIDEO: Short Suite III - Over-Caffeinated

Posted a video of a the third movement of Short Suite, which has an interesting dialogue between the two hands. Parts are semi-contrapuntal, and it wavers between consonance and a touch of spicy dissonance. At one point the two hands even get in an argument! The last section includes a reference to the first 2 movements and end in a wild series of chords - but the last note is a gratuitous middle C. Yes, it's a deliberate musical pun!
