Night Adventures includes three adventurous pieces that will have students excited about the left hand melody! Written for late elementary students who may struggle with reading bass clef or a left hand melody while the right hand has more involved accompaniment, these pieces encourage playing a left hand melody beautifully, not just loudly! The short format of these Short Sheets® allows a deep dive into phrasing and creating a melody line that sings.

Included are these one-page pieces:

• Blue Moon Flight
• Night Reflections
• Midnight Chase

What Level is Night Adventures?

The three Night Adventures pieces are late elementary. The hand positions are fairly stationary, but helpful fingerings are written throughout the piece to aid with movement. Sharps, flats, and naturals are notated (no key signatures). The smallest note value is an eighth note. Pedal markings are written throughout one piece.

What is the Tune Up Concept?

This set of Tune Up Tunes® tunes up:

• Reading bass clef
• Shaping left hand melody
• Right and left hand voicing and balance
