Big World, Small World

From Plank Road Publishing

Right off the top, this grand piece features an energy-driven blending of many big drums from around the world. Singers are invited to add claps, which instantly makes them part of the exciting rhythmic palette.

When performed in unison, the song is quite singable and easy to learn for most classes. To provide an example, the kit includes a unison version. However, if you can perform the song with either two or all three parts as written, it's very strong and effective, and singers will feel the power as they perform.

To help teach part 2 and part 3, we have isolated them and included them in the kit. (from Music K-8, Vol. 29, No. 1)
