Bang my drum

Words and Music by Rosie Adediran and Rosanna Ter-Berg.

A song to learn about two musical elements – dynamics (loud/quiet) and tempo (fast/slow) – which can be used as either movement or instrumental activity. Have a go at feeling like an elephant, mouse, cheetah, and a tortoise when playing a drum!
