Watching Dolphins

Watching Dolphins is a tender piece with a lot of modulations in different keys that all feel natural and easy to the ear. The right hand floats to the higher registers of the keyboard, which means that there are a lot of ledger lines to keep an eye out for. Each bar only has one broken chord which is repeated another 3 times, so it shouldn't prove that difficult to play for many students.
