Sarabande
by Scott Rogal
This is a three part composition, with melody, harmony, and bass lines.
Students should learn all three parts. They can then divide up into groups and put together their own arrangement.
Encourage them to be creative - the can make their own decisions about tempo, dynamics, phrasing, road map, and part assignments. They may even add their own musical ideas and blend them with those on the sheet.
We have been consistently astonished through the years at the very creative performances our students come up with, using Sarabande as their raw material. Each group's performance is always very different from the others.
They seem to very much enjoy the chance to create their own performance, rather than always working to realize the teacher's vision.
