Oh dear, it seems that a skeleton may be trapped in your closet. But whoäó»s in real trouble here? It seems the closet that poor Mr. Skeleton is trapped in is quite messy and gross äóñ even for a monster! This Elementary solo is written in D minor, 4/4 with a pickup measure, providing the student with the opportunity to challenge themselves and be in charge of starting the performance. What follows is a conversation between Mr. Skeleton and the student that offers wide ranges in dynamics as well as frequently changing articulation that will provide a rewarding challenge for any student. The optional accompaniment offers to enhance the quirky and comical nature of this wonderful twist on the "monster in my closet" tale!
