Snippets of that are in the movie "Topsy Turvy" (1999), in the scene where the sister is playing the piano in her mother's room. Ask your local Gilbert and Sullivan society (may I recommend the New England Gilbert and Sullivan Society or Savoynet), they are incredibly geeky about these things and will work to get an answer for you.

Best answer: It’s Avalanche by Heller - it’s in one of the Bastien piano books (and probably lots of others) and was one of my childhood favorites.

Best answer: Mskyle is correct. The sheet music is available on this page. (The one you want is piece no. 2 on any of the "complete score" files.)
