During the orchestral introduction I was wondering why it was so tonal, but then I realized that the cat was sticking mainly with the white keys, which enforces the constraints of tonality (or at least, one of the related modes). The couple instances of the cat hitting a black key were used nicely to create some modulations. There were definitely parts where it had a nice structure to it, but a few parts felt a little disjointed - but I guess that's what happens when you don't have much thematic material to tie a composition as a whole together. Definitely fun though!

The most confusing part for me was seeing the credits and being able to tell that this was definitely some sort of European language, but not one I know anything about. I'm goign to guess Latvian, or maybe Lithuanian, and then I'll check the information to confirm.
