The “Halloween” theme song, composed by John Carpenter, is a haunting and repetitive melody often played in a 5/4 time signature. Below are the basic notes for the right hand (melody), which can be played on the piano:
Main Melody (Right Hand):
E – F# – G – F# – E
E – F# – G – F# – E
E – F# – G – F# – E
E – F# – G – F# – E
Bass Line (Left Hand):
Play these alternating notes to complement the melody:
A – E – A – E
A – E – A – E
Tips:
1. Tempo: The song is fast-paced, so start slow and gradually increase your speed as you get comfortable.
2. Repetition: The theme is repetitive, so focus on precision and consistency.
3. Dynamics: Add a slightly eerie and soft touch to mimic the original atmosphere.
