Little Sand Bug [Alf:00-21333]

Sand bugs are very small members of the crab family. They live in the sand by the ocean and follow the tide back and forth. June C. Montgomery captures the essence of the sand bug beautifully in this elementary solo. Written in C position and 4/4 time, the melody alternates between the hands depicting the ebb and flow of the sand bugs with the tide. Simple note values make this solo easy to learn. The optional teacher/parent duet, complete with a short introduction, makes this piece a delightful addition to any recital.
