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.

Melody Bober's The Dakotas visits both North and South Dakota in three movements. In the opening movement, "The Great Plains," majestic chords, sixteenth-note runs and a soaring melody recreate the sweeping vistas of this vast grassland area that is found in both states. In the second movement, "Heirlooms and Lace," a lyrical and expressive melody with lush accompaniment recreates the sense of loss and longing when families moved to the new Dakota Territory created in 1861 and left behind precious belongings. The final movement, "Badlands Rough Rider," brings the suite to an energetic close. The Badlands regions of North and South Dakota are represented by this lively piece that shows the style and flair of a rough and tough horse and rider in this desolate region.
