Program Notes by José Elizondo:

 

This short piece was written in response to a call for scores by the popular violinists and Internet personalities Brett Yang and Eddie Chen (TwoSetViolin), inspired in their mythical violin prodigy icon, Ling Ling. The piece is meant to be light-hearted and playful. It incorporates elements from several folk traditions, including Celtic fiddle music.
