A tried and tested easy piece, that can be repeated and arranged to produce a performance. Aimed at pupils in their first few terms of playing an instrument or for use in class lessons. By keeping the music simple, pupils can concentrate on improving their performance skills, listening to each other and use of expression on their instrument. Comes with a printable score and also a contracted score to project on a whiteboard so pupils do not need paper copies! This also gives you the option of annotating with note names and other symbols and prompts. More confident players can perform a solo. Parts 1-3 are in C . Part 4 is for open string violin. Part 5 and 6 are in Bb making them suitable for clarinet and brass instruments. There is a Grade 2 standard piano accompaniment with guitar chords underneath. To end the piece, all play their first note. Pupils could add lyrics to reflect the piece. This is just one from a range of ‘Simple Scores’ pieces.
