This activity combines movement and music in a very creative way. Children always enjoy playing instruments and can be very imaginative in the way they interpret sounds in movement.

<p>I have delivered many, many dance cpd sessions over the years &amp; the common question is ‘where do you find your music?’ So I have put together a list of my regular ‘go-to’ pieces, complete with the name of the artist, a direct link to that song on iTunes &amp; themes that I think they could match with.</p> <p>This is obviously not a complete list but it is a really good start and I recommend building up your own library of 'music for dance - it makes finding suitable music so much quicker!</p> <p>But if I can give you one piece of advice when finding music for dance… don’t look for the perfect piece of music (it doesn’t exist!) - just look for a good match - then stop looking!</p> <p>Another tip - a good place to start are film scores - they’ve been written with a visual image in mind - doing The Romans? Then something on the score of ‘Gladiator’ will probably suit.</p> <p>This is mainly aimed at KS1 &amp; 2, but a good piece of music doesn’t have age boundaries… I hope you enjoy them.</p>
