Beethoven's Music
By Judy East Wells

Now even your youngest students can experience the music of Ludwig van Beethoven through this solo. The melody is divided between both hands throughout and stays mostly in Middle C position. However, the left hand does extend briefly to bass E in one measure. The A section has an original melody with lyrics while the B section features an arrangement of a melody from Beethoven's Sonata PathŽtique. An optional teacher accompaniment creates a rich harmonic background for the entire piece
