This arrangement was inspired by the theme from Super Off Road, an arcade game I played as a kid numerous times in the movie theater lobby. It's a fun mash-up of Bluegrass, Honkytonk, Disco, and Afro-Cuban music.
The A-section is straightforward. Though it requires independence of hands, it's a relatively light texture that should be simple to navigate with minimal sustain pedal. The B-section has a metric modulation that may take some getting used to. Just remember that the quarter pulse becomes the dotted quarter pulse in the new section. Also, the tempo can be relaxed a bit in this 12/8 section. Metronomic perfection isn't required. The last section returns to the original tempo and meter.
I've had a great time working on this series and thought it was appropriate to go out on a bang. I hope you enjoy playing this one as much I did writing it!
