Piano Solo - Digital Download SKU: A0.495556 By Tom Rule. By Tom Rule. Contemporary,Instructional. Score. 7 pages. Published by MaconMacMusicGuy (A0.495556). A challenging yet accessible piano piece that is interesting and very rhythmic. Don’t let all of the meters scare you - it is easier to figure out than you’d think at first glance! The third movement - Over-Caffeinated - starts with a tri-tone, just because it sounds interesting and a bit jarring. The Right and Left hands argue for quite a while, tossing the same little angular melody back and forth, even getting stuck together at one point like two dragonflies in late summer [see measures 147 and following.] It all ends in a major blowout, complete with references to the first two movements, get big and boisterous, and then the final surprisingly pleasant C major chord is followed by the right hand, which JUST has to get in the last word.
