SKU: AP.45874S

UPC: 038081523781. English.

Here's a fun, jazzy, all-pizzicato selection for early beginners to play at one of their first concerts! Showtime Rag is built around a strong, steady beat. This original by Doug Spata uses only the D and A strings, and half, quarter, and eighth notes with very limited independence to keep everyone together. Each section gets a melody, making it the perfect way to show off those beginning skills. (1:40).

This collection will become a teacher’s go-to for recital and festival repertoire at the mid-inter-mediate level. Students (and parents) are excited by the impressive and diverse musical effects they create. Showtime! uses damper pedal and parallel chords (both hands) moving up and down the keyboard to create a big sound. A Winter’s Dream and Lullaby for a Ladybug are lovely ballads featuring lyrical melodies. Swirling Snowflakes has showy hand-over-hand arpeggios. Fiesta! provides an authentic Spanish flair and Llama Rumba lends a Latin rhythm adventure. Three additional treasures in 3/4 meter round out the set.
