Bobby McFerrin: Playing with Music
Contributed By
Description
This Cuesheet, from ARTSEDGE, is designed to help students prepare for and enjoy the music of Bobby McFerrin. A performance with Bobby McFerrin can range from an audience sing-along to dazzling improvisations on jazz and classical pieces, to a one-man performance of beloved children's classic stories. The Cuesheet includes activities to educate children about musical terms, singing, conducting, and listening. There are exercises for identifying different instruments and the use of imitation to structure classical pieces. Cuesheets are performing arts study guides published by the Education Department of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and the National Symphony Orchestra (NSO). Cuesheets are designed for teachers' use before and after attending performances for school groups and families at the Kennedy Center and at various sites across the country as part of the Imagination Celebration on Tour program. Cuesheets are wonderful resources containing introductory information and activities appropriate for all children, even without experiencing the performance. Less
