{"product_id":"galloping-ponies-406430","title":"Galloping Ponies","description":"\u003cp\u003eDescription: It is in A B A form with a coda. The song has direct dynamic contrasts and also shading (crescendo- decrescendo). It is meant to be played in a 'lively' tempo that the student can master. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePurpose: * It's an exercise for a legato right hand accompanied by a detached left hand. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e* The student learns to 'roll off' staccato at the ends of slurs gently without 'punching' them.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e* The song also requires the student to count the eighth rests in mm. 18-19, 22-23 in order to give 'oomph' to the following accented quarter notes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSuggestions for Instruction: *Have the student say, “Giddy-up, giddy-up.” \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe sound of the words gives a feeling for the rhythm of two eighths and a quarter note. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*The fingering in mm. 19-20 and 23-24 is important in order to execute slurs properly. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*Try the right hand alone (mm. 4-8, 11-12) for shading with the crescendos and decrescendos.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKey: C Major\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003ePublisher\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eWillis Music\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eInstrument\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003ePiano\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eFormat\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003ePiano Solo\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003ePages\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e4\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eStock code\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e406430\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn-store pickup available.
