Creative Teachers – Primary choral warm-ups – 13. Descending arpeggios

[Music playing]

RACHEL KELLY: The next one we're going to do - we've tried this one before - this is when we sing down an arpeggio. So, we're going to start on a fairly high note, on an ooo vowel. (SINGING) Ooo. And, we'll sing ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo. Eyes this way. Arms by sides. Ready.

STUDENTS: (SINGING) Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo.

RACHEL KELLY: Let's try it on a different vowel sound. What's another vowel sound we could sing it on? Amelia?

AMELIA: Ahh.

RACHEL KELLY: (SINGING) Ahh. I like it. Ready. And . . .

STUDENTS: (SINGING) Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh.

RACHEL KELLY: Good. Make sure your arms are staying by your sides. What's another vowel sound? Zoe?

ZOE: Eee?

RACHEL KELLY: (SINGING) Eee, ready.

STUDENTS: (SINGING) Eee, eee, eee, eee.

RACHEL KELLY: Good. Let's stay on the eee vowel, but we're going to go up a semi-tone. (SINGING) So, that was our note. Now, we're starting on this one. And . . .

STUDENTS: (SINGING) Eee, eee, eee, eee.

RACHEL KELLY: (SINGING) Eee.

STUDENTS: (SINGING) Eee, eee, eee, eee.

RACHEL KELLY: (SINGING) Eee.

STUDENTS: (SINGING) Eee, eee, eee, eee.

RACHEL KELLY: (SINGING) Eee.

STUDENTS: (SINGING) Eee, eee, eee, eee.

RACHEL KELLY: (SINGING) Eee.

STUDENTS: (SINGING) Eee, eee, eee, eee.

RACHEL KELLY: Nice job. Well done.
