Enter the world of intrigue with this original Piano 4 Hand duet, “A Rhythmic Communiqué, (Secret Agent Z -7)” by Susan Staples Bell. Written in Bb Natural Minor; even though there are 5 flats, it lays easily under the fingers and the melodic dialogue is equally shared between the Primo and Secondo parts. This piece is all about the rhythm: the opening statement alternates between 5/4 and 6/4: tapping out morse code for “Z - 7”. “Z” could also stand for “Zoom”, as the tempo marking is Quarter note = 186. Changing time signatures and syncopated rhythms continue throughout and will keep the performer on their toes! Can you find the hidden code message in this piece? What message can you send when you play it?
