Winter 1 - Week 3 - mini maestros
This week we were introduced to C-E-G, Carnival of the Animals, and the trumpet!
We identified the colors that coordinate with C-E-G and played a song on bells, chimes, and piano utilizing the names of the notes, the colors, and solfeggi (Do-Mi-Sol).
Repertoire: Carnival of the Animals
We learned how Saint-Saens was challenged by his students to write a musical joke and wrote the Carnival of the Animals. We each chose an animal and then acted them out white listening to the music.
Have fun doing the same at home with the video to the right!
We discovered the trumpet. After hearing Ms. Karen "play" the trumpet, we each took a turn trying it. Then we read Mo Willems' Listen to My Trumpet with sound effects!
