🗝The Skeleton Key is an intermediate level piece in D minor written to evoke vintage detective narratives. In popular detective stories, a skeleton key could be used to open any lock. To inspire students, let your sense of fantasy soar as you discuss how it could be involved in a mysterious event.

Students will like the sound of the easy syncopation pattern. There are a few places to swing the 8ths and sufficient, well thought-out fingering that helps students play the correct notes. Detailed articulation and dynamics make for an effective recital or festival performance.

This is a year round piece for imaginative boys and girls who like music that sounds a bit jazzy. It also works well as an alternative to a Halloween piece for intermediate students.

    This piece is so fun! I love the sound of the leading left hand melody. My students are excited to play it and it’s leveled perfectly. We discussed how fun it would be to do an actual skeleton dance to this piece. It makes you want to get up and dance!
