| Description: This fun and cool-sounding piece is the perfect way to introduce the difference between F♯ and F♮ as well as C♯ and C♮ to your young orchestra. The melodies are passed around to all sections, keeping everyone on their toes deciding whether to play their F's and C's "high or low." A simple ride cymbal part adds color and pizazz. A great way to teach standard 12-bar blues form. For an extra challenge, have students "swing" the eighth notes. |
