Incredibox is a great website to explore musical creation and entertainment. Incredibox invites you to become the conductor of a group of human beatbox. You can share your compositions with others from all over. It's a really fun website that even students will enjoy using.

Incredibox is a neat web-based app where seven loops at a time are available for students to use at a time. They may remove and add loops at any point, and there are unlocked special content available for certain combinations. This makes it seem like a game. Students can share their compositions, but unfortunately cannot download it without paying. Regardless, this is a fun activity where all the loops sound good-no matter what the combination.

Students can arrange an acapella mix using different beat boxers and vocals. 

I love this program.  Great for the kids on a snow day, or a day we cannot get in the band room, but can use the computer room.

This is a unique website which allows the user to create rhythm loops with characters in costume representing the individual loops. It is an easy-to-use program which allows the user to create endless combinations of rhythm patterns and sound effects. Selecting the correct combination of figures will unlock bonus features. The program is fun for all ages.

This is a website for students to compose beatbox-type songs. Students can combine melodies, rhythms, sound effects and voices to compose their piece.

This is user friendly, fun, loop-based software where users can mix their favorite loops and then record and easily share their creations with others. This program is free to use on a computer and can be purchased for an iphone or ipad.

I have LOVED this website so much. I use it in class on a regular basis for a variety of uses. It is used as meaningful sub plans, rewards, and to explore creativity and composition. I also use it to discuss beatboxing and form.

This is an excellent website that produces high levels of student engagement and buy-in. It allows students to "mix" their own music using pre-created beats, rhythms, and melodies.

This is the link for our incredibox software we used in class. Make sure you save to the email stacipendry@yahoo.com so I can see your pieces. Version one will not record

This website is meant for buying sheet music for a variety of musical groups. In addition to options to search for and purchase music, there are also reference recordings available for many pieces.

This is a sheet music database that provides music for band, choir, orchestra, guitar, solo instrument, and solo voice.

This site offers sheet music from arguably the biggest available library of music online. You can both e-print many of the pieces, as well as buy physical copies.

My go-to cite for purchasing music.

J.W. Pepper is a great resource for finding music for any traditional ensemble or instrument. Through the website, you can find music from various publishers, such as Hal Leonard or Boosey & Hawkes. When searching for music, it will bring up all available arrangements, as well as show the grade level of the work (with the exception of older, out-of-print music). There are also links and articles for other music resources.

J.W. Pepper is the easiest site I've used when choosing and purchasing sheet music. It is very helpful that most of the pieces allow you to hear a performance of the music you want to buy and you are able to see the scores for the pieces, this has helped me determine if my groups can play the piece before I buy it. I can see if the range is too high for trumpets, if there are a lot of string crossings for violins, etc.

J.W. Pepper distributes sheet music for every ensemble. Band, choir and orchestra teachers can find music from Beethoven to Whitaker in this one-stop-shop for sheet music.

J.W. Pepper is a website to access many types of music scores. Creating an account is very easy, and there is no annual fee. I find many pieces that work for my all my varying ability ensembles through this site because it offers various arrangements of the same work. I can sometimes find a piece in SATB and 2-part. Prices of music keep rising, but they have great customer service and shipping is usually quick. Many selections on the website are accompanied by a recording of the piece, but not always in the voicing selected.

JW Pepper is a resource I use to find music for my choirs of 4th-8th grade. It has music categorized by event, genre, grade, and ensemble. I also use this resource to play recordings for my students to model a new piece of repertoire.

J.W. Pepper Sheet music is an online music site in which you can get all your music needs taken care of in a very timely manner. You can search for almost any type of instrumentation, create your own library, read informative articles about music and music education. You can also listen to music samples of some of the pieces, and take a closer look at the notation. Once you have decided what you would like, you may order online and either have your music shipped to you or ePrinted immediately. J.W. Pepper is a wonderful resource that every music teacher should use when ordering music. You won't be disappointed with them.

J.W. Pepper has stock music at any music educators hands. Users can simply use the search bar to search for a piece to purchase. If the user needs ideas, they can use the tabs to find hat they are looking for (choral, band, orchestra, general music). JW Pepper proves audio recordings for most of their content, as well as scores for directors to view. Users can even choose to download music and print music with the e-print option, so directors do not need to wait to receive their purchased items in the mail.
