Scheming Weasel

Kevin MacLeod

For alto sax and piano

Written in A minor, range E4 to C♯6

A weasel tiptoes around the henhouse at night, rubbing its paws over a plan that is far too clever for its own good. MacLeod couldn’t decide how fast it should go, so he published it twice; this is the faster version. He lets anyone use his music for free as long as they credit him.

“Scheming Weasel (faster version)” by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com), used under CC BY 4.0. MacLeod’s score on incompetech.com. We kept MacLeod’s key, form and markings, gave the tune (the English horn, the clarinet in bars 13–20 and 45–52 and the glockenspiel in bars 29–36) to the alto sax, reduced the bassoons, mallets, bass clarinet and bass for piano and left out the percussion.
