Piano,Xylophone - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.845140 Composed by Folk. Arranged by Phil Beaman. 20th Century,Folk,Instructional. 3 pages. Phil Beaman #6212131. Published by Phil Beaman (A0.845140). This is a setting of a Guatemalan folk song designed to be the first 'recital piece' after just a few weeks of learning. Solo part covers the range of 1 octave of the first learned notes of that instrument. Beginning students will appreciate the repeated notes before you have to find the next one. There is a lilting piano accompaniment with fresh descriptive harmony, especially those occasionally dissonant chords when the parrot squawks! A short piece of just 20 bars (but has a full repeat), it comes with the full score plus instrument solo part. Also available for many other basic instruments. Great fun piece for lessons or the classroom to mark those first successful notes.

The opening section locks measures of 3/4 and 6/8 together, working in tandem to propel the melody forward. The middle of the piece keeps the same pulse, but uses a jaunty melody to move first into 4 and then, with increasing frequency, measures of 2 and 3. The opening motif reappears before the piece once again pushes into the the lively second theme as it bounces towards its playful conclusion.
