Merry March

This spirited, happy march is sure to please beginning students. Carefree and straightforward, its melody steps along proudly in alternating staccato and legato touches. HLSPL Level 3 Late Elementary piano solo. 2/4. Lively tempo. 55 measures. Some single-note hands-tog. lines, but for the most part the melody alternates between the hands in a stationary Middle C position. Brief use of accidentals (sharps) and eighth notes in pairs. Slurs, staccato, shaded dynamics. (Timing: 47 seconds)
