Product Description

The Muskrat Waltz is inspired by the muskrats that were dancing in my pond behind my home yesterday. This piece is written for late beginner/early elementary students. It is a great introduction to waltz time, teaching students to really feel the waltz beat. With the melody in the bass, it is a wonderful piece to showcase the left hand. The melody is catchy, with an unexpected E flat near the end to catch the audience's ear. Students will love this piece, recreating the dance of the muskrats.

This piece was written in C position, but uses a B flat and an E flat to enhance the melody in a couple of spots. The font is larger for easy reading, with some colour added. Fingering has not been added to this piece as I felt this would also be a great piece for the student to work with the teacher to figure out fingering, using their knowledge of fingering they have learned so far.
