The Witch’s Cat by Catherine Wilson is quirky and mysterious Halloween piece for early intermediate pianists. Piano students will enjoy the spooky feel!
The use of chromaticism and triplets helps add to the uncertainty while the semitone / half-step motif that culminates with six octaves of hand crossing mimics a cat walking from the top of the keyboard all the way down to the very lowest note!
