Your beginning band students will love Andy Clark’s arrangement of this favorite lullaby, recently featured in many episodes of two very popular television series. Using only the first five notes students learned in beginning band instruction, every section of the band gets a chance to shine. The variations demonstrate how a melody can be played in different styles, providing excellent teaching opportunities. The brief introduction can be performed as a solo, duet or full section of trumpets, clarinets or saxophones. Fun for everyone at your beginners’ first concert! (1:15)
