Waltz Under The Stars Level:
“Waltz Under The Stars” is an intermediate piano solo in which we hear the swirling of dancers’ dresses throughout. It’s a mix of modern with classical accompaniment patterns to draw your students into this moment in time.
- Mode: B flat Major
- Time Signature: 3/4
- Concepts: modified pop arpeggio accompaniment, waltz accompaniment, parallel 6th intervals, pedal
Your students will explore keeping a very light left-hand with flowing right-hand phrases that ebb and flow. Pedal is used lightly in this piece. Enough to create a legato, swirling effect without losing the playful nature of this dance.
