Today we had the opportunity to have a visit from The Minnesota Percussion Trio. They performed for us this morning and we were very impressed. We thought they would be playing traditional percussion instruments like various drums, cymbals made even and xylophone. We were surprised to find out that they play very non traditional percussion instruments such as cheese graters, five gallon buckets and even springs on a skateboard. They played an assortment of songs that used a variety of instruments. The last song was played on tin cans of various sizes using spoons and teaspoons. It was a avery fun assembly! We are all very inspired to find instruments that can be made out of ordinary objects.
Ask your child about his/her favorite part!
