Description
This Mighty Musicians Piano Camp will encourage creativity and a love of music, as your students explore the piano, create their very own compositions, sing and move to the music and much more! This camp includes five lesson plans. Students begin by learning that music tells a story in Night and Day; they explore beat and rhythm in Traffic Jam; children learn that musical notes move up and down in Mountains and Hills; in Birds of a Feather they learn the musical alphabet and notes on the keyboard; and they finish with a bang with Forte Fireworks as they explore dynamics in music. It also includes the Mighty Musicians Camp Planner, which includes 20 pages of camp planning forms and materials. This camp is perfect as a week-long, five-day camp or a once-a-week class that runs for five weeks.
Students will explore these topics through song, play, stories, movement, listening and art. They will also learn a pre-staff notation piano piece and compose their own song in each lesson. Other topics that will be covered include musical elements, keyboard topography, listening, high and low on the piano, basic piano technique, lines and spaces and directions on the musical staff, and more.
Children will be introduced to several pieces of classical music, including Morning Mood and In the Hall of the Mountain King from Grieg’s Peer Gynt Suite; Beethoven’s famous 5th Symphony; Appalachian Spring by Aaron Copland (including the famous song Simple Gifts); Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake; The Blue Danube Waltz by Strauss; and 1812 Overture by Tchaikovsky. They will also be introduced to a fun brass band piece called Traffic Tangle; and Stars and Stripes Forever by John Phillip Sousa. That is a lot of great music! Children will sing and move to these wonderful pieces and have a blast!
