Martha Mier's name is synonymous with jazz, and this duet does not disappoint. The trademark Mier jazz sound is found throughout this sophisticated and debonair piece. Written in F major and 4/4 meter, the opening theme brings to mind a soft shoe dance with its use of staccato in both parts and a playful melody in the primo. The A-B-A form allows the secondo to have the melody in the B section, creating equal playing opportunities for both primo and secondo.
