My students and I will resume our World Music Exploration with the United States. This week, we are checking out the traditional American folk song called In the Pines.
World Music Exploration - Musica Popular Brasiliera
World Music Exploration - Tico Tico
This week, my students are checking out two versions of Tico-Tico no Fubá. This piece is an example of a Brazilian choro, or lament and was composed by Zequinha de Abreu in 1917.
Arca & Arca Perform Pia no Jac
This year, we have been exploring the music of Pia no Jac, a Japanese piano/cajon duo. The technical challenges are quite different from what we've encountered when we were taking lessons.
