Walking in the Fog Level:
“Walking in the Fog” is an elementary-level piano solo. This piece moves through four octaves on the piano to create a mysterious soundscape.
- Mode: D minor (accidentals)

Starting finger numbers are included as well as circled finger numbers to indicate hand position changes. Accidentals, written as flats or sharps, are used rather than a key signature. Alpha notes are included for ledger notes outside of middle C.
The smallest note in the rhythm is a quarter note. This allows for smooth transitions during the rhythmic hand-over-hand arpeggios. Hands move by octaves for the hand-over-hand arpeggios.
