by Doug Edwards

Learning the classics just got a whole lot more fun! Teachers and students will have a blast with To Bach And Beyond, written by master music educator Doug Edwards. The musical arrangements are challenging, but playable by upper level elementary-age students. Lesson suggestions guide the instruction while invitations to adapt the material demonstrate Doug's understanding of the classroom and elementary ensemble. Arrangements include: Beethoven's Funky Fifth, William Tell Overture, Minuet (J.S. Bach), Für Elise Samba, Russian Dance, The Wild Horseman (Schumann), Hallelujah Chorus, The Can-Can, Ronda Alla Turca, and Surprise Symphony. (Grades 4-8)
