KS2 Music and History - Heroes of Troy

This BBC Teach School Radio series Heroes of Troy targets objectives from the Music curriculum at Key Stage 2. Vocal coach David Grant has seven exciting songs to learn, each one linking to an episode of the story of the Trojan War.

Each of the songs has a tutorial video in which David teaches the songs in a lively style that will engage with a young audience, the first of which can be seen here.

There is also a playscript which incorporates the songs and music in a performance. Overall it’s an ideal resource for combining music with the History topic Ancient Greece.
