ONE HEARTBEAT FROM THE SUN
The Song Book includes notation, tuned percussion arrangements and or guitar chords, dance moves and teacher’s notes. The CD includes backing tracks and lyrics booklet.

Repertoire to deeply engage students. Repertoire to enhance your Music Program. Content directly in line with the National Curriculum. Invites student creativity: Compose ostinatos, improvise to the backings. Read notation and play in hocket (photocopy-able masters provided in the Song Book) and much, much more!

A gorgeous collection of original songs, including ‘Come On Down‘ (pentatonic/percussion), ‘Happy Dog’ (dance), ‘Tiptoe’ (pentatonic & actions), ‘Get Up’ (choral), plus the beautiful ‘So Many Stars – Yingarti Japalinga’, a round previously only available on a limited release EP. Also included are two little gems from Ian’s back catalogue – ‘Jimmy Jumper’ (a novelty waltz) and ‘The Sun Goes Up’, a lullaby suitable for young choirs, with philosophical, life-affirming lyrics. Plus full, two-verse, choral version of the new classic ‘AUSTRALIA – IT’LL AMAZE YA round, part-song.

Filled with variety, there are choral pieces, raps, novelty/action/dance songs, pentatonic/Orffish compositions for children to play along or improvise with, plus
instrumental backings. The CD wallet is beautifully presented, with superb children’s artwork and includes a lyrics booklet. The accompanying Song Book includes music notation, guitar chords and teacher’s notes.
