Make up short pieces with me using short bursts of rhythm or fragments of melody
Make up simple songs with me, made up of sequences of short phrases:
- Start with rhythms, as these will be easier for me to make up and copy
- Use percussion instruments, other soundmakers and specialist technology if required
- Now try the same activity with melody instruments
- Sometimes, let’s copy each other …
- Other times, let’s make new phrases that fit with the old
- Soon, we’ll be making up whole new songs together
