Easy Bucket Drumming is a collec- tion of fun and upbeat arrange- ments for students age six and above. As students work through this resource, they will learn to read quarter and eighth note rhythms, adapt to different tempos and develop hand independence.

Rhythm sticks provide a great way for young students to have an active performance experience and learn to read rhythms. With the advent of “bucket bands,” the experience has become even more fun. This creative

collection brings you six new seasonal arrangements. Teacher’s Manual w/CD PRPRS716 $24.95 Stomp Boom Blast!

Students will also learn about musical concepts such as form, dynamics, accents, and improvisation. Buckets are cheap and easy to store! Can you imagine trying to store a set of 30 congas in your music room? You probably already have a few buckets lying around and could easily get a class set from donations alone. Drum sticks are also inexpensive, but a set of wooden dowels from a dollar store will work just as well! You can produce four unique sounds on a bucket drum by hitting the sides, top, rim or clicking the sticks. By using larger or smaller buckets, you can create even more variety in sounds and form a bucket drumming ensemble. We have developed an easy to read notation that allows students to switch between these sounds and prepares them for reading other percussion notation. Teacher’s Manual w/CD TV002 $35.00
