K/K and K/1 musicians have set out on a journey to explore music of the world. Our journey always begins with a mystery… where are we going? Young musicians listen to samples of music from our destination and guess where in the world we might be headed.
Students listened to the following samples to inspire their guesses.
We learned about the rhythms that make up samba music, learned a classic folk song about monkey named Sambalele who’s always in trouble, and played, sang, and danced in the style of Brazil. We took a brief journey from Brazil to Chile before spring break to learn a folk song and game, “Pavo, Pavo” or “Turkey, Turkey”.
When we return from break, our next mystery destination awaits!
