The scene depicts Billy Redden playing the piece opposite actor Ronny Cox on guitar. Redden plays "Lonnie"—a mentally retarded, inbred, extremely gifted banjo player. Alan Beaumont's arrangement for Concert Band substitutes the Banjo and Guitar with Bb Cornet/Trumpet and Euphonium in an exhilarating and foot-tapping duet.
