£58.50. . . And Goodnight - Chris M. Bernotas
is a grade 2 lyrical piece that would be a beautiful addition to any school music library. It was inspired by a Brahms lullaby; hints of it are heard throughout the piece and within the original melody. Ranges and rhythmic difficulties are modest which will allow for ample time in teaching the valuable musical concepts of phrasing, tuning, balance, dynamics, and most of all, expression. (2:30) This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.
