Deciduous Waltz
Deciduous Waltz is a playful duet set on a hillside with glimpses of period costumes, China tea sets and crackly gramophone music.
Jack and Jill went up the hill
Amongst the Emerald trees
They donned their frocks and coattails
And had a spot of tea
The leaves had turned, the slope was steep And though they waltzed around
The timeless tune was sure to play
They both went tumbling down
