This solo is based on Franz Joseph Haydn's "Surprise Symphony." Students familiar with the theme from this symphony will be delighted with its transformation in the key of C Minor. It has just the right sound for a Halloween solo and will surprise the audience with its dynamic contrasts. Older students will especially enjoy the humor in this piece.
"Now he's there at the bridge, what a horrible sound as the clattering hooves beat the wood..." Composer Sondra Clark has written a fabulously frightening poem about the Headless Horseman prefacing her original intermediate level piano solo. You'll feel the horse's motion as you gallop along through three pages of suspense.
"He tiptoes in and he tiptoes out...and
he munches in between!" are the simple lyrics of this spooky, Halloween
solo! Written at the late elementary level, this piece is sure to
be a hit amongst your students!
