Fantasia on two nursery rhymes

Here I propose a tiny poutpourri on two of the most famous nursery rhymes: respectively Ring a Ring o'Roses (the Italian Giro Giro Tondo) and the evergreen Twinkle Twinkle Little Star (Ah! Vous-je dirai, Maman).

The structure is very simple: a slow, two-bar curtain leading to Ring a Ring and a variation, the reappearance of the curtain, a little longer with piangevole fluttertongues, the exposition of Twinkle Twinkle varied two times and the happy coda, in crescendo and stringendo, again on Ring Ring.

Happy listening! 

This is really charming. Although I didn't know clarinets read alto clef too (m. 28); staccatos on half notes were also interesting :D. Tactically placed diminished seconds and great transitions really made this stand out. Good job.

Brilliant, charming little work.  I laughed out loud while listening to it. Bravo!
