Hungarian Dance No. 5 on Boomwhackers

Hungarian Dance No. 5 is a color-coded Boomwhacker play-along on bimbadi: the notes fly toward your class in their tube colors on the smartboard or projector, with note names instead of lyrics. You need the 8-note diatonic set plus the G♯ tube from the chromatic set. Brahms keeps changing the tempo: slow, fast, slow again. This play-along is a bonus that comes with the colored sheet music on eduki; the code inside unlocks it.

Classroom idea

Let students show the tempo changes with their bodies while listening, sneaking and then running in place. For the key of A minor you need the G♯ tube.
