Exploring Feelings Through Music – How does Music Make the World a Better Place?

 

In this weeks Music lesson, we listened to a piece of Music called Maple Leaf Rag that was over 100 years old! We said that it made us feel happy and that we wanted to dance and move our bodies to it!

It was composed by Scott Joplin, An American Musician…..

 

and was to be played on a piano or the pianola which was a self-playing mechanical musical instrument.

We then revised our song, “Music is in me” and accompanied it by improvising on the Glockenspiel using the notes C D E.

Have a listen…
