As expressed in the piano collection version's title, "Working Together" is a lively piece. "Allegro vivace" roughly translates to a tempo that is noticeably faster than an allegro tempo, but is played in a quick and lively tempo customary to the vivace tempo marking. The piece starts with reduced instrumentation, with the strings playing the main melodic line in the pizzicato style. Underlying this plucked melody is a rhythmically driving snare drum part, emphasis on the dominate beat in timpani and low brass voices, and minor interplay between the triangle and tambourine. Following this brief introduction is the piccolo, playing a fast almost grace-note-like run that transitions the piece into the longer, fully orchestrated theme. | As expressed in the piano collection version's title, "Working Together" is a lively piece.

This new theme lasts for sixteen measures, in which the originally melody initially introduced by the strings is shared between the various mallet percussion and woodwind instruments. During this feature, the lower voiced brass and pitched percussion instruments play a continued eighth-note rhythmic figure that slightly resembles the low brass part in [[ | This new theme lasts for sixteen measures, in which the originally melody initially introduced by the strings is shared between the various mallet percussion and woodwind instruments.

Promptly following the second theme is a more connected, legato-style melody, which is a variant of "[[Dearly Beloved]]". Here, at such a tempo and use of rhythms, the piece can be felt in the established fast 4/4, or, more preferably, in half-time. Throughout the piece, certain instrument-specific techniques are used, such as: pizzicato style in the strings, multiple tonguing- in this case, double tonguing- in the trumpets, and use of rolls for mallet percussion. The piano collections version features a variety of ornamentations and key changes to add to the "elaborate" or "lively" nature. Likewise, the piano version shares the melody sporadically between the bass and treble voices. | Promptly following the second theme is a more connected, legato-style melody, which is a variant of "[[Dearly Beloved]]".
