Lost Puppy Comes Home—Loreta Fin. Lost
Puppy is a 2011 composition by Loreta Fin
with a melancholy mood. Students have often
commented how sad the piece sounds. In this
new work, after many years, the lost puppy is
finally found. The piece commences in a minor
mode, based on E, like the original work. The
Lost Puppy theme is heard in the opening bars,

of bow speeds is important here. It is also
an opportunity for students to practice their
developing vibrato skills.
