Last Dance Of The Snow Fairies Level:

“Last Dance Of The Snow Fairies” is an early intermediate piano solo.  It is easy for the accompaniment pattern to overpower the sparse melody.  Your students will need to experiment with how lightly the accompaniment can be played and the range of each dynamic marking to create their own interpretation of this piece.

  • Mode: G minor
  • Time Signature: 6/8
  • Concepts: melody moves hand to hand, quiet broken chords while voicing melody, 2 ledger lines 

This is a great introduction to 6/8 time with simple rhythm patterns that emphasize feeling two beats per measure.  Pedal markings are given to start students off.  As a recital piece, this song has many opportunities to experiment so it becomes a unique performance for each student.

Should I print all pages for students?

Yes!  Each page is designed with students in mind.

  • Page 1: Cover art
  • Page 2: Description, tips for students to make it their own, terms of use
  • Page 3+: Music
  • Last page: Other music they may like

Students love a bit of cover art since it can help them get into the mood and story of a piece.   I’ve included ways to adapt or play with the music so students become part of the creative process.

The terms of use are there to educate students and their families about copyright law.  We know, but they may not realize what they are innocently doing may cause you to lose your studio licence.

Lastly, having other pieces at a similar level can keep students excited about what the next song in their musical journey can be!

    This was the perfect piece for my student to learn expressions. It’s a beautiful piece for tweens, fun for students to play and very relaxing to listen to.
