Piano Solo - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1091187 Composed by Sibylle Kuder. Baroque,Classical,Contest,Festival,Instructional,Traditional. Score. 3 pages. Sibylle Kuder #695343. Published by Sibylle Kuder (A0.1091187). Early Intermediate. Other than reading and playing in the key of A major, there are few challenges in this piece: the rhythm consists of quarter, eighth, and half notes, the only accidental is D sharp. Eighth note patterns are scale fragments, ascending in the left hand, descending in the right hand. When the hands move, it is along with the melodic pattern. While most measures have eighth notes, they never happen in both hands at the same time. The most difficult aspect is counterpoint in Baroque style: quarter notes are to be played staccato, eight notes legato, usually both at the same time. An excellent preparation for this Gavotte would be the Gavotte in D major by James Hook: it trains counterpoint playing but the hands never move.
