This elementary solo creates the mysterious sounds of scary shadows by placing both hands in a low register, playing staccato and legato at unexpected times, and also using accidentals. Written using an easy C minor 5-finger pattern in each hand, some cross-hand action provides excitement and adds to the mysterious mood. There is an optional teacher duet accompaniment that creates harmonic interes…

Sat…

Bartók started to collect Romanian folk tun…

In Full Score. . Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS.
