*Inspiration #10: "Turkey in the Tenth Frame"

*Technical Focus:
+ Sweeping
+ Speed
+ Flexing

*Title:
I just found out that 5-pin bowling is a Canadian phenomenon – more specifically, an Ontario invention.
5-pin bowling is way more fun than 10.

A “turkey” is slang for hitting three strikes in a row.
The tenth frame (the final frame) is the only time that the bowler gets to throw 3 balls regardless of strikes or spares.

To throw a turkey in the tenth frame is the ultimate bonus – the best possible thing that can happen under the circumstances.
to me, it means seizing opportunity & making the very best of your resources.

I made it number 10 to correspond with the title.
the notes are played in free-time, but I've notated them as quintuplets as an expression of my love for 5 pin bowling.
