This piece is composed to learn how to read the notes C5, D5 and E5 in the treble clef. The notes are introduced using a minim and a crotchet in a simple quadruple time signature. The notes should be played in a detached manner, slightly separated from each other. The intention for this piece does not include playing smoothly. While playing the piece the aim is to count the beat out load and to say the letter names out loud whilst reading the music. A steady beat is important with no pauses for thinking time, the speed is not important however an aim of sixty crotchet beats to the minute is not excessive. A student will benefit from being able to play the rhythm using simple percussion instruments over an ostinato beat. The notes required for this piece are in the fifth register but the student is expected, once able, to play this piece using all the available C's, D's and E's on their instrument.
