This festive piece in blues form features melodic ideas that are contrasted over changing rhythmic feels. It begins with a familiar Cape Town groove known as Cape Goema, which reflects the happy atmosphere found in Cape Town when the New Year rolls around. This is the time of year when major dance and carnival-like competitions take place, and energetic dance troupes in colorful dress dance and march through the streets. An improvised solo section is included.
