DW923 - Upside Down Polka:
Playing Standard: Grade 4
Playing Time (approximate): 3 min 30 sec
This fast-paced, danceable, somewhat jazzy polka is written in 4/4 time in C major, in which it stays throughout. However, it delivers a rhythmic jolt at the end of every section - most of which are repeated - in the form of a bar in 6/4, together with multiple accents. The accompaniment is a solid bass and chord structure that supports the busy treble keyboard and fingering required of the right hand. |
