"Night of the Vampire" is a little piece I wrote for my nine year old son to help get in the mood for Halloween. Thinking other piano teachers might like it for their students I have decided to post it online for you to download:
Tips:
* This piece is for the early intermediate pianist.
* The arpegiated diminished chords can easily be played by alternating hands after each two notes.
* Have students try to identify when the Vampire first rises from his coffin. When is the first sign of daybreak? (sunlight?) When does the Vampire return to his coffin for sleep?
* This piece is also fun on keyboard using the special organ effects.
