In music class my scholars marry poems, rhythms, melody, and movement to create a final product: a wonderful piece of art. Starting with speech and transferring it to non-pitched percussion really helps solidify rhythm and steady beat. Before adding a melody with pitched percussion instruments like the xylophone, we try the speech with body percussion and other unique everyday objects. Why not try it with the frame drums? This is an important instrument with an international historically-rich past. A class set of frame drums will allow my scholars to play with instruments that resemble percussion they would find in professional ensembles and communities across the world.
