Kevin Olusola - YouTube - 0 views

  •  
    Kevin Olusola is a cellist who also beatboxes while playing. He is also in the a capella group Pentatonix. His videos are entertaining and musically stimulating. He not only performs his own compositions, but he also creates mash-ups of pop tunes...often performed in a classical style. He bridges the gap between classical and pop music, demonstrating incredible instrumental technique and culturally relevant material...all while beatboxing!

    This website is fantastic for students as individuals or as a full class activity! Step by step it takes them on a safari to learn about each instrument of the orchestra using Benjamin Britten's "A Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra". It is kid-friendly and would be great for students in 2nd and 3rd grade. It tests their listening skills using games deciphering things like notes in a sequence, or high and low.
  •  
    Incredible multimedia, interactive version of Benjamin Britten's famous work. Produced by The Weill Music Institute at Carnegie Hall. Students log in or free play a safari adventure to save an orchestra. Instrument families are explored in detail with listening examples in a leveled gaming experience. Interdisciplinary connections to safari excursion, story telling, sound properties, animals and travel. Teachers can create an account to track student progress and/or assessment. Works well with an IWB.
