Pat a Pan - An Adagio section introduces this lovely old carol with mysterious presence. Open fourths and fifths add to the medieval flair as accompaniment in the next section while the next passage opts for a "boogie-woogie" feel complete with a malleted, walking bass line! Syncopated melody and well-placed martellatos also signal a detour from the original tune.
