Product Description
Big Bad Wolf is a bold and imaginative solo piano piece perfect for late beginner to early intermediate students. Set in a driving 5/4 time signature, this minor-key piece introduces young pianists to odd meters in an accessible waythanks to a steady quarter-note bass line in the left hand that keeps the rhythm grounded and easy to follow.
The pieces stomping, low-register bass evokes the heavy steps of a menacing character, giving students the chance to play with expression and dramatic flair. Whether in lessons, recitals, or just for fun, Big Bad Wolf offers a unique opportunity for students to explore mood, character, and rhythm while developing their musical storytelling skills.
This piece is a great addition to any piano teachers libraryespecially for students who love cinematic or story-based music, and for introducing odd time signatures in a non-intimidating, fun way.
Big Bad Wolf is composed by Quentin Walston, jazz pianist, composer, and founder of This Is Jazz, a jazz appreciation and education company.
