Annotation : Intended as a short showpiece for quartet, Licorice Licks features a quick and catchy melody that is passed between the four players. The work features a moderate range, extending to E 4 . The technical demands of the work are not excessive for a showpiece, making this piece appropriate for most intermediate groups.
