"Music / Cerdd"

Do you have problems finding pieces of music for projects in school?

Why not look up my book: Caryl Roese (1989), Music for Topics and Projects, published by ALAW, Pontypridd, Wales.

It contains over 600 titles of classical music under different topic headings, for example: Circus, Science, Festivals,

Weather, Space and many more, which can be used to stimulate dance / movement, creative writing, composition

and appraising.

 

 

Are you interested in teaching your pupils/children some new rounds?

Why not look up my book: Caryl Roese (1989), A Pocketful of Rounds / Tôn Gron, ALAW, Pontypridd, Wales.

It contains a collection of rounds from around the world with both Welsh and English words. Sol-fa notation is

included above the melody line. The rounds range from simple to challenging.
