her compositions, she strives to educate as well as delight. This arrangement
of iWe Wish You a Merry Christmasi is certainly unexpected! Shall we,
iCha-Cha-Cha?i
Written for Intermediate, this arrangement features a quicker tempo,
running eighth notes, broken chords figures, parallel sixths passage, and
syncopation. The piece begins with a lively syncopated Left hand bass line
that sets the tone throughout. The melody arrives in measure 9 (Right hand)
and matches rhythm with the Left hand. The iBi section comes in measure
17, which offers a smoother feel for contrast. Check out the fun, broken
chord interlude at measure 25! In
measure 48, the parallel sixths passage offers an opportunity for ritardando
and a fermata, making the audience waiti.until one more time for the broken
chord interlude! Measure 57, gives the last statement of the melody, in a
rising a climax for the end.
Not to mention, itis JUST PLAIN FUN!
Perfect choice for recitals! Christmas Piano Solo
