Carl Fischer Music #YAS242. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.YAS242). ISBN 9781491164945. UPC: 680160923854. Key: D minor.This piece, written in 3/4 time throughout, evokes visions of dancing figures, their faces unrecognizable in the shadows created from the play of light at dusk. Moving from D minor to E minor, the eerie keys and accidentals provide intriguing effects. Teachable moments abound for low first finger on A and E and some high third finger in the upper strings, augmented intervals and extended patterns in all instruments, as well as slurs and hooked bowings. This piece can be performed any time of the year, or as an autumn or Halloween feature.
