We’ve been at it again. Another visit to a preschool. This time – Knollwood. I’ve attached a clip of a version of Pancakes I play on the banjo – there is some good clapping from the kids during the song.

Enjoy,

Soundzania has been visiting more local preschools and having a good time! The kids love the music, get to clap along and shout some animal names out. Along the way, I share my instruments – stand-up bass, guitar, banjo, ukelele, accordian, tenor saxophone and the kazoo.
I am sharing a video clip here of the stand-up bass section… the kids are laughing at the sound of the bass (unless its me

Enjoy,

Performance at a Birthday Party

Soundzania was invited to perform at a friend’s birthday party – what fun !! We recorded it, of course, and can share a clip here with you.

We debuted a new instrument – the Magic Carpet… thats right, a magic carpet! The kids had a good time jumping on the carpet and making crazy sounds. We’ve got lots of ways to make the magic carpet part of the fun of a birthday party.

If you have a little one with a birthday coming up, let us know ! We’d love to come out and perform for the party!

Enjoy!

Performance at Knollwood Preschool

Sorry for the late post, but things have been very busy at Soundzania. New instruments are arriving at an alarming pace – but more about that later.

Knollwood Preschool had Soundzania come visit in May. We, well I, came in and brought the standard fare of instruments: stand-up bass, acoustic guitar, banjo, ukelele, kazoo and a new one…. the accordion.

I performed on two different days and everyone had a wonderful time. I loved it when the kids just got up and started dancing during the Soundzania theme song – that was a blast! I think its the kazoo that does it

I’ve included a video here to show to some of it as it happened. I will likely be coming back to Knollwood at some point next year as well, so if you’re kid goes there, they’re in for a treat next year

So, long for now, and enjoy the video.

If your child goes to a local preschool, and you would like Soundzania to come visit, please let me know – scott@soundzania.com

Thanks

A Fun Time at the Preschool

I recently gave a musical presentation to a local preschool. It was a blast, so many good questions and quotes from the audience! Like, after guessing the animals in one song, someone yelled out “we have very large brains”. Of course they do!

While I was showing them the accordian, and letting them hear how it sounded, a girl in front raised her hand and said that it looked like a trumpet… I said “Really?” eyebrows raised… she replied, “a square trumpet!” Wow, nice perspective, I love it.

They were definitely enjoying the fun we had. In all, I played acoustic guitar, stand-up bass, banjo, ukelele and kazoo, and I closed with accordian. For the last song, I played a song the preschoolers were all familiar with (that they sing in the school regularly anyway) – This Little Light of Mine. It brought down the house – if you can do that at a preschool! Everyone was singing along.

So, I will be doing this again I am sure, and if you’re reading this and know of a school that would like a visit, give us a holler.

I captured it on video and have uploaded a clip of the part of the presentation with the ukelele and kazoo. Give it a watch, its fun.
