NEIL A.KJOS MOUNTAIN Majesty By Melody Bober For Piano Solo Early Advanced

This grand piano solo was commissioned by the Wyoming Federation of Music Clubs. It is descriptive not only of the Rocky Mountains, but is also a tribute to majestic mountains everywhere. Opening with a peaceful introduction in 4/4 time, the sound quickly becomes expansive in its use of a wide keyboard range and the melody played in octaves. Quickly played hand-over-hand arpeggios follow perhaps suggesting turbulent white-water streams. A contrasting “Reflective” middle section in 6/8 time suggests rest in the midst of the beautiful scenery. The A section returns before a flashy, alternating-hands chordal ending. A dramatic conclusion to any recital or festival.
