The Rite of Fall (Mid-Elementary)

The Rite of Fall (Mid-Elementary Level). Composed by Wendy Stevens. For Piano/Keyboard. Willis. Mid-Elementary. 4 pages. Published by Willis Music.

This rousing, ominous piece is a playful nod (and possibly a great introduction) to Stravinsky's famous Rite of Spring. Although it may look a little difficult on paper because of the accidentals, students will soon figure out the clear rhythmic and harmonic patterns. It's perfect for fall recitals, but also a great piece for any time of the year!
