CGB1017 Pathways to Musical Ringing, Volume 2; 3, 4 or 5 octaves

Volume 2: Rhythms

Sandra Eithun and Michael Joy continue their Pathways to Musical Ringing series, offering music that teaches specific musical elements (in this volume, Rhythms), encourages success, and fosters growth in musicianship. These pieces have been carefully written and/or selected from folk, classical and sacred repertoire in order to approach the teaching of rhythms sequentially. In addition to being excellent teaching pieces, they are intended to be flexible for use in a variety of school, festival and sacred settings. As an additional benefit for developing ensembles, there are no page turns for any of the selections.
