Witches' Dance Op.4 No.2

Ernst Kullak

What's this piece like?
It is difficult to find such high artistry in a piece written for late beginners/early intermediate pianists. This piece is bold, exciting and it might just become your next favorite! The music will help you develop strong finger action and coordination. The running notes in the theme provide just enough challenge to help you work on scales, with even sound and thumb control.
Who's this piece for?
For intermediate pianists looking for an extra challenge that will bring their technique up to the next level.
