Jumpin' Round is an exciting, new and unique approach to teaching music with Orff percussion instruments. It features thirteen original, fully arranged pieces with scores, parts, vocal lead sheets and free downloadable audio files. This makes it a flexible teaching tool with many improvising opportunities and re-arranging suggestions provided. The pieces vary in style from Boogie Woogie and Jazz Ballad to Japanese and Symphonic. The compositions in this book are designed to assist students make the transition from learning music through singing, imitation, rote and movement to the independent musician who can take a written part and read it, hear it, play it, feel it, re-arrange it and improvise on it. Every piece can be approached from either end of the rote/reading continuum, or anywhere in between. The thirteen pieces are arranged to be complete within themselves so that students can play them without CD or teacher backing. They are aimed at upper primary and lower secondary students and are graded from easy to more difficult. Also, each piece contains easier and harder parts; thus allowing for variation in student ability. The first few could be taught aurally to students with little musical experience, but generally the music is appropriate for students with some years of music education.
