Piazzolla Goes To School

Maybe more accurately, Grace Jones's version of Piazzolla's Libertango goes to school and is met by a room full of soprano recorder players and two reluctant percussionists. Today's video provides a nice example of video editing and a chance to see the next Patricio "Toribio" Rijos developing his skills on the guiro.

If you want to try this in your own classroom, a place to start is the Schott Play-Along version of Libertango or, if your school has the usual budget problems you can make your own "Play-Along" starting with this YouTube Karaoke track. Have fun.

Many thanks to the folks at Asturias based Musical Blogies for sharing this video.

  1. Thanks for this nice post about our school work.

    From my point of view as a music teacher in High Schools, pupils without professional music experience can learn more about a composer when they do performances like this one.

    I hope that Piazzolla would also agree.
