Piano Pronto Movement 1: #4 For He's a Jolly Good Fellow and Shaping Phrases

This lesson plan has supplementary activities for "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow" in Piano Pronto Movement 1.


Theory Analysis

Watch the first 3 minutes of the  Shaping Phrases Video.


Label and color I, IV, V(7) chord pieces in the left hand. 
Add stars in your music above the phrase peaks shown on Pronto Prep page 9.

Music and Movement

Choose a video to listen to below and move your arms or body upwards as you approach the phrase peak (mountain or fellow) and down to the phrase ends. Imagine the music is like waves flowing up and down in the ocean before reaching the shore.
