Monkeys Spinning Monkeys

Kevin MacLeod

For trumpet and piano

Written in A♭ major, range G3 to G5

A troop of monkeys swings through the treetops, a little clumsy and very pleased with themselves. Kevin MacLeod lets anyone use his music for free as long as they credit him, which is why you hear it everywhere.
