Funeral March of a Marionette (or the original French title Marche funebre d’une marionnette) is a short piece by composer Charles Gounod (1818 – 1893). It was written in 1872 for solo piano. It is perhaps best known as the theme music for the television program Alfred Hitchcock Presents, which originally aired from 1955 to 1965 which makes this duet perfect for your spooky Halloween program.

This piece stays in 6/8 and uses the low C to the 2nd Bb above the staff.
