This pack combines active listening with practical music making. It gives busy teachers a fingertip resource of recordings of music and related classroom activities, which will help children understand their own and otherpeople's music. The approach is involving, practical and accessible, requiring no music-reading ability.
There are twelve complete recordings of music from different times and places, chosen to demonstrate the elements:duration, dynamics, tempo, timbre, texture, pitch and structure. Photocopiable material is included along with supplementary recordings supporting the activities.
