WORSE THAN A CURSE --- back

Having worked with these scores and kids for many years I have found it helpful to introduce each piece in certain ways that help to understand the background of the music and its setting as well as inspire the imagination and enthusiasm of the kids. On this page are some suggestions that you may find helpful starting points. The pictures below can help to set the mood of this piece. - Keith Sharp

About WORSE THAN A CURSE
TO COME
Useful points to remember:
· Playing range between 3rd year and 5th year of learning.
· Excellent study in upper-half staccato. 
· Evenly written for all parts.
· Bass takes one of the themes!
· Much passing around of thematic material between sections. (Don’t forget to read the bit on the cover about the mummy.)

Your suggestions are important and welcome!
