Grendmother's Menuet

Let's Dance!

Actually written by Agathe’s grandmother, Agatha Aasilla Christensen in 1820.

Two notes played together, usually in one hand but sometimes in both, whose distance is the interval of a octave.

A technique where both hands simultaneously play a series of 3rds separated by an octave.

Also called the damper pedal, it is the rightmost pedal on the piano and used to sustain notes by moving the dampers away from the strings.

A series of blocked octaves that are played one hand at a time and where both notes move up or down in parallel motion.

A series of any amount or quality of blocked 6th intervals that are played in one hand, and where both notes move up or down in parallel motion.

Notes whose lengths are equal to one-eighth the value of a whole note or half the value of a quarter note.
