For general music and instrumental class use, each of the six reproducible small ensemble pieces in this collection offers a fun, exciting way to foster and encourage musical creativity and self-expression. They may be performed as body percussion pieces as well as substituting sounds using percussion/rhythm instruments, "junkyard" sounds or kitchen/household instruments. Students will learn how to read and perform short, basic rhythms and apply them to pieces in rock, jazz, Latin, march, and classical styles. A brief description and history of each style is included.
