Down Paths of Darkness

Title: Down Paths of Darkness
Level: 2
Composer/Arranger: Barry E. Kopetz
Publisher: Wingert - jones Music, Inc.
Classification: Dramatic work
Instrumentation: Small Ensemble
Source: Popplers Music, Inc.
General Comments: This song emphasizes the darkness of the key of F minor. For teaching tools, this is loaded: marcato and legato style, blend and balance, and dotted eigth-sixteenth triplets in the same piece. The key could present a few technical problems, but if the scale is taught, the problems will diminish. The score also states that this presents learning objectives that support the National Standards for Arts Education.
