Sixteen Sensations by Stephen Chin
The elementary music program has a wealth of options to keep students engaged and excited. The game titles such as “The Still Before the Storm”, “Fairy Floss”, “Ostinato Odyssey”, and “Bubbles” are designed to ignite the players' imagination. These games introduce students to a diverse range of keys and orchestral textures, which can help them develop a profound appreciation of tone color in music. Each game presents a unique set of techniques such as harmonics, martele, spiccato, slurred legato, string crossings, right and left-hand pizzicato, and tremolo that are presented in a way that is easy for students to grasp. These techniques help students develop their musical skills while having fun at the same time.
