Written in the eerie key of F-sharp natural minor that attracts young students, this sound defines our scary monster called Stretch. Each section gets important melodic and countermelodic material. With two separate sections (slow and fast), a legato middle section, a jaunty pizzicato section, and a forceful coda, every section will be challenging. The work features simple rhythm patterns to make it more accessible and allow the student to focus on the three sharps.

At each grade, two of the pieces offer the students an opportunity to perform without full band backing, exploring the sound and resonance of their instrument.
