Rodney Miller has a pretty cool version of this tune on his Airplang album.

A fun, kind of midless tune that sometimes just kind of plays itself. Often played for dances.
Makes me want to sing that song "wa wa wa wa wa- waltzing with bears"

Dancing Bear slightly modified
I first heard this tune from a guy named Jeff Katz. His arrangement was so dynamic it completely changed the tune from a rather standard dance tune to a performance piece.

The boy is Jeff's son, the girl his neice.
