Take Off, Chris Holmes Tromp.

Inhalt:

Teacher's Notes: These carefully graded pieces have been designed to help

your pupils with their reading skills from elementatry to grade 3 - 4. The

scale melodies will help to develop a feeling for keys and tonality. The

pieces have no performance markings and you and your pupils are encouraged to

add these as part of the learning experience. The chord symbols throughout

are in concert pitch and offer the opportunity to add a live keyboard or

guitar accompaniment. These pieces are designed to be both enjoyable

performance material and a helpful teaching resource, and the scale melodies

will make preparation for examinations a more rewarding and musical

experience. Student's Notes: Every piece has a full performance track and an

accompaniment track on the companion CD. Listen to the performance tracks and

try to copy what you hear - for example, what do you notice about the quavers

(eighth notes) in Pogo Stick and Swingin' - are they the same? Use your ears.

Play along with the accompaniment tracks with as much style as you can, and

most importantly, Have Fun! This book was originally published by Harlequin

Music, Cambridge in 2000.
