Lot's of exciting new instruments are being played in the halls of Decatur! 3rd graders stared recorder, 4th graders started ukulele, and 5th graders started guitar! Check out this video for a little ukulele inspiration - sent to me by one of our 4th grade students!

This video of one of Ms. Schmittle's favorites. It is a story completely told with music (and a small introduction by David Bowie). The boy you hear singing is 13 years old at the time this was recorded! It's about 20 minutes long and well worth it! December's composer of the month uses this instrument in his Nutcracker Suite. See if you recognize it! This week we have two videos. Video 1 shows the original piece of music while video 2 reinterprets in a totally new way! :) check them out! |
