Scary Shadows [Alf:00-42841]

This elementary solo creates the mysterious sounds of scary shadows by placing both hands in a low register, playing staccato and legato at unexpected times, and also using accidentals. Written using an easy C minor 5-finger pattern in each hand, some cross-hand action provides excitement and adds to the mysterious mood. There is an optional teacher duet accompaniment that creates harmonic interest and rhythmic stability.
