La
Vallée / Arranged by Melody Bober
|
|
Early Advanced
This piano solo
arrangement of Canada's national anthem has a big, orchestral sound,
with open, arpeggiated chords, sometimes hovering above, other times
supporting the melody. The final section moves from 4/4 into 6/8
time, making room for rising triad inversions, and a sweeping 32nd-note
cadenza. Written for the moderately advanced performer, it is a
worthy recital piece that is sure to be a winner both in Canada and
the United States. |

Advanced
This lovely
spiritual is arranged for advanced students and consists of sixteenth
note patterns in the L.H. while the R.H. plays the melodic line
ranging from single notes, to double notes, and chords. The middle of
this piece changes key and also provides a change in material in a rubato
style. This would be a great piece for a recital or other
multicultural event. |

|
|
Intermediate
A beautiful
arrangement of the classic piano concerto for the intermediate level
student, this piece includes hand crossovers with L.H. playing
flowing, arpeggiated chords for one of the themes. The opening begins
with the main theme in a dotted half two eighth note rhythm and
finishes with a triplet quarter rhythm that is both aesthetically
pleasing for the ear and also challenging to play. |
