A suite for youth string orchestra. Ushered in by a slow, mysterious introduction (Old Toys Chest), the movements are named after a particular toy: Porcelain Doll is inspired by 18th century minuets; Jackstraws, believed to have developed in ancient China, presents features normally associated with Asian music, entirely in pizzicato; Carousel is a slow and melancholic meditation; Spinning Tops is the fast grand finale.
