Chocolate Donuts is a fun-to-play 2-page late elementary etude in C, disguised as a  “boogie.”  It is an easy, fast-learning piece that makes a great “emergency” piece to play at an upcoming recital. This is a good piece for a student who needs practice on:

  • Blocked fifth to sixth intervals in the left hand
  • Moving to a few different positions while keeping the beat
  • Holding, not playing, tied notes

Chocolate Donuts is so simple to learn that even your most reluctant practicer will get on board. Plus, it is easy to learn by rote, so you can actually teach it in the lesson. It can even be turned into a duet because the hands never play together. I have successfully taught this piece to students in a level 2 method book. Fingering, dynamics, and articulations are marked for fast learning. This is a great piece to have on hand!

This is a studio license, so a single teacher can make unlimited copies.

Chocolate Donuts is an 3-page PRINTABLE PDF file measuring 8.5 x 11 inches. The file includes the 2-page score and a color cover which is optional to print. If you do not want to print the cover, set your printer to print pages 2 -3 only.

    This piece is pretty genius. In the week that I’ve had it, word has gotten around about it and now many of my beginning kids are demanding to play it. The shifting hand positions are quite useful for sight reading exercises and such. The LH part is just challenging enough for little hands. Thanks for sharing your art with us, Susan.

    This piece is good for practice in changing hand positions and is so much fun!!

    This is a favorite of the kids. So easy for them to learn yet sounds more complicated than it is. Thank you.

    This song is SO fun for all ages and levels!!! I especially love using this song for sight-reading if a teenager is having a hard day and needs to smile.
