Clowning Around / Lorraine Milne.

Library shelf no. 786.2088054/MIL 15 [Available for loan]

Work Overview

The detached rhythm of Clowning Around and the two-in-the-bar feel along with the use of chromaticism and the odd dissonance, is a deliberate attempt to engender a feeling of clowning or fooling around.

The Abridged version consists of the first 16 bars only - the "main" theme. It can also be used by more advanced pianists for sight-reading practice. The Full version is extended by an 11-bar bridge before the repeat of the main theme.
