Product Description
BOOMWHACKERS PLAY FOLK AND TRADITIONAL is a collection of 12 folk and traditional songs from Europe and America, especially arranged for Boomwhackers. The book is ideal for younger groups new to reading music, but of course is accessible to all age groups.
Each song is arranged in three parts, with instructions on each part that suggest which Boomwhackers should be played by each player.
The minimum number of players required for each song is 8 to 10 players. To get the most from the book you will need all Boomwhacker sets. Diatonic, Chromatic, High Set and Bass Sets.
All the music is colour matched to the Boomwhackers. Ideal for groups new to reading music. If you require further help my instructional books,
BOOMWHACKER BUILDING BLOCKS 1 & 2
are also available.
Ive also written all parts within the range of the Diatonic Boomwhacker set, except for the occasional high note above C 3rd space for ease of reading. Because of this it is especially important to take note where the instructions require Octavator caps to be placed on the tubes, as these notes should sound an octave lower than written.
The Bass Boomwhacker parts are also written in the Diatonic set range. This means that all Bass parts sound an octave lower than written, again for ease of reading.
Other titles Ive written for Boomwhackers include:
BOOMWHACKER BUILDING BLOCKS book 1
BOOMWHACKER BUILDING BLOCKS book 2
BOOMWHACKERS PLAY CLASSICAL book 1
BOOMWHACKERS PLAY CLASSICAL book 2
