| | Music for Children - 3 CD Set |
 | | As with the examples in the books, the songs and pieces on these CDs should not be considered as parts of a blueprint, to be meticulously followed in every detail, but rather thought of as outline sketches that can be varied, modified or extended as the situation demands. |
 | | In this fantastic, cumulative rhyme about the old woman who swallowed many different creatures, each animal is represented by its own instrument, with its own specific rhythm, and these in turn accumulate: woodblock, guiro, drum with wire brush, drum with hard sticks, cowbell. |
 | | This Scottish song gives a further example of the minor form of the pentatonic scale: A-C-D-F-G. It is scored for xylophones and timpani, with interludes between the verses improvised on descant recorder to the accompaniment of a tambourine. |
