Part of the Wtritten For You Series Mary Leaf's Above the Stars is a sparkling and lyrical piece which promotes musical expression. Written in 6/8 time and in the key of G minor this late intermediate solo accurately depicts the mood of being suspended 'Above the Stars'. Its tender and floating effect is created through special melodic and harmonic qualities. This piece offers the intermediate level student several sixteenth-note passages that create the overall dreamy mood.
