How many different patterns can you create and play at the same time as singing?
“Sarasponda” is a song from Finland full of nonsense syllables. Marie will teach you the song, and then help you start to introduce different patterns and rhythms with your body and items you might have around your house. A rainbow might even show up!
Below the video, there is a recording of a long rhythm pattern that you can play around with and see what rhythm patterns you might come up with on your own. Marie also included the accompaniment for Sarasponda in the recording, so you can sing along and add more rhythms to that.
What you’ll do in this video: sing, rhythm, move, create.
