Скачать или смотреть Xylophone Canon and Orchestration lesson

5th Grade students reviewed ideas of orchestration including range (bass, alto, soprano), timbre (metal and wood), and form (canon, introduction, through composed, layered ostinati) with this Xylophone canon from MFC Vol 1 Pg 91, No 1. It was our first exploration back on the barred percussion after being away from the instruments for about 2 years. We had a lot of of fun playing around. Moving forward we will be working on technique and using both hands when playing melodies and adding more improvisation into our form. We are looking forward to continuing our music making in person this year and are so delighted to be back together in our music room!
