"X" Marks the Spot, Early Intermediate Solo
Here’s another exciting piece from Adventures on the High Seas: A Collection of Original Solos Inspired by Pirate Tales.
Are you ready for a treasure hunt? Make sure you STOP. LOOK. and LISTEN. Before you blindly jump into trouble! How will you find the treasure….? Does “X” mark the spot on the map?
My students say this is their favorite in the collection so far! They love how you have to STOP. LOOK. and Listen before going on. Silence can be very powerful in a piece and it’s sometimes a challenging concept for students to work on. They don’t want to stop and count- this is a fun, creative way to make them more aware.
Here’s a wonderful piece that students will enjoy playing - fun & accessible, but the teacher will love the patters that make it easy to learn. Written in C Natural Minor with a few B naturals to hint at C Harmonic Minor. I love that Left Hand melody! Enough of a challenge to intrigue, but it’s so fun to play, students don’t even realize they are spending more time on the keys!
Key: C Natural Minor with a few B naturals to hint at C Harmonic Minor.
Time signature: 4/4
Skill development: Counting rests! Left Hand melody. Descending C Natural Minor Scale. Coordinating hands for accented notes. Dynamic contrasts.
What level: Early Intermediate
How long: Cover + 3 pages, Performance time 01:30.
This is a Single License: One purchase - One copy. Thank for honoring the composer’s work by not sharing.
