Last but not Least

Cenas Infantis was the last workshop at
Casa da Música for Reception Bears.

As soon as we walked in the room we were asked to 

stamp, stamp, clap, pause (1234).
Once the children had picked up a good pace, 
a melody could be heard:
The six suits for unaccompanied cello - J.S.Bach.


The children were asked to create sounds, follow visual and aural instructions at the same time as clap, stamp, dance or play simple instruments. The musicians who guided us, helped us through sections of these pieces from the Baroque to Contemporary.
We worked both sides of the brain simultaneously.




This is a small sample of the end of the session:
