Little Fugue -- Snell

Little Fugue, is a really easy duet. Its a two page duet, actually composed for the trumpet, but it can be played in the Clarinet. The song mostly consists of low and high notes that stay in a range in which I'm able to play easily. Rhythms are really easy, they are quarter notes, eighth notes, and the occasional 16th note, so that the duet has a nice melody and for ornamentation. The hard thing for me in this song is remembering the notes, because you have three sharps F# C# and G#. F# is easy to remember because there are lots of songs which have F# constantly, but the G# and the C# are harder to remember, because I normally play them in a song, but the key signature changes at some point, so I don't play the whole song with those notes in #. When I play it once and even twice, I remember that I need to play the notes, and I play them each time they appear in the piece of music, but when I play it for the first time in the week, I don't remember and it just sounds odd. This song is really workable, if I sit on afternoon and work through it, because the rhythm is not hard and its kind of catchy once you play the whole thing a couple of times. The things I need to remember when I'm playing this song, is the #s in the song, and where they are, so I don't have so many issues when I'm playing the whole piece of music.
