Cello,Piano - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1290831 Composed by Nancy Bachmann. 21st Century,Chamber,Classical,Contemporary,Holiday. Score and part. 37 pages. Nancy Bachmann #881516. Published by Nancy Bachmann (A0.1290831). Perfect repertoire for a Halloween recital! *Purchase includes piano score and cello part Inspired by an imaginative scarecrow decorating contest held every Halloween in Benicia CA, these pieces depict a varied selection of straw-stuffed personalities: Scarecrow sets up the spooky fun with sneaky pizz. and wailing melodic lines. Ghost-crow haunts us with eerie harmonic glissandos, wide menacing vibratos, and a distorted nursery-rhyme tune. Skeleton-crow dances on awkward, boney, knocking knees. Windy leaf-crow depicts dry leaves blowing mysteriously as the cello sings an autumn song. The effect of descending thirds mimic a turkey's gobble. Zigeuner-crow is a shameless parody of Sarasate's brilliant Zigeunerweisen for virtuoso violin and should be played with the appropriate tongue-in-cheek bravado.Â
