Grade Four love playing the steel drums during their music lessons. They have learnt the names and roles of the different drums, as well as memorizing some of the chords which they have to play.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Some of their favourite pieces to play and listen to are \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcCalypso Warm-Up\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 and \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcSloop John B\u00e2\u20ac\u2122.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

There are four different types of drums. This one is called the Tenor. This drum plays the tune or melody of the piece of music.<\/span><\/p>\n

This drum is called the Guitar. If you are good at keeping a steady beat then this is the drum for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Double Second also keeps a steady beat, but can also play complex rhythms and patterns.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Double Tenor is similar to the Double Second. The Grade Four children remember sayings to help them play rhythms. One of them is \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcthis is my island\u00e2\u20ac\u2122.<\/span><\/p>\n
