Description
Junior Songscape serves as an excellent resource for primary school singing, paving the way for Lin Marsh’s acclaimed Key Stage 3 songbook, Songscape. This essential collection features twenty-eight songs that encompass a diverse array of musical styles, including ethnic music, theatre, pop classics, rounds, and original compositions by Lin Marsh. The book is organized into five thematic sections—seasons, feelings, history, Shakespeare, and travel—offering teachers a variety of topic ideas. It also incorporates "Stars, Hide Your Fires" from the QCA’s Key Stage 2 Schemes of Work.
This resource presents a significant opportunity to foster confidence in the classroom and enhance concert performances, with vocal ranges thoughtfully tailored to suit the age group. Many songs include optional additional vocal parts, and the keyboard accompaniments are accessible for pianists with moderate skills. The accompanying CD features complete performances of all songs, and adjusting the balance channel allows for piano accompaniments to be heard alone.
