Simple Orff: Alligator All-around

Просмотров 1,6 тыс.Месяц назад

This is my second video dedicated to the song "Alligator All-around". Whereas the first video is much more fun and lively, this one is much more focused on presenting the song as more like traditional notation. My hope is that teachers can use one, the other, or both videos depending on what will benefit their students the most.

This is an Orff arrangement of the song "Gently Sleep", designed for Recorder, Triangle, and xylophone or keyboard instrument (or boom wackers too). "Gently Sleep" is the second song in my Recorder Series, and I hope to make more Orff arrangements based on the series- if there is a song you'd like me to arrange- let me know in the comments below.

Promenade of the Dragon: A Fruit Rhythm Play-Along

Просмотров 16 тыс.7 месяцев назад

This is an originally composed song to accompany these rhythm reading exercises. The exercises start easy, with fruit names to help remember the rhythms, and then get progressively more challenging until there are just the rhythms animating without any text to help. Along with playing the rhythms, this could also be a great song to practice rhythmic dictation. Instead of watching the video, jus...

We learn about notes and rhythm, instrument families, the treble clef sign, and what that little p and f means to better understand how music works. But the music we make is the most impor...

This is a fun greeting song that is in 6/8 and has a hand clapping component to the song, but I think it could also work well with all sorts of other instruments.

I came across this poem a few weeks ago, and it seemed so fun and naturally musical that I wanted to turn it into an Orff arrangement that even my youngest students could play. I hope it can be as fun for others as it's been for my own students.

How Instruments Play the C Major Scale

Просмотров 8 тыс.Год назад

This video is designed to help people visualize the differences between the four families of instruments. There are many ways to think about how these families are different, and one such way is to understand the mechanics behind how an instrument from each of these families plays the C Major scale.
