 Larry Sue has arranged this favorite of everyone, from chilren to centenarians, who has ever plunked out this tune at a keyboard and had fun improvising on it with a friend. It is filled with a variety of techniques, change of rhythms, and even an opportunity to ham it up a bit in a ‘contest’ between treble and bass ringers. This novelty work may be a challenge – but it will easily entertain your audiences!

  • Please note: one ‘optional’ section is extremely dissonant for comedic effect and can be omitted. Also – this section is filled with many accidentals and thus, is rated at a difficulty of 6, if played at tempo in its entirety. The remainder of the work is a solid level 5. The recording on the web site includes this section.
