Bücher veröffentlicht von Creative Sound Press

The Sound Books series is a picture book collection designed to visually represent musical concepts for young and novice learners. Its original artwork is created and arranged to clearly depict sound ideas with few or no words required. The unique approach encourages students to bring together visual and aural imagery and creativity in an exploration of vocal and instrumental skill building and conceptual musical understanding. Designed for interactive use between parents and children, as well as teachers and students, each book focuses on a particular skill and/or concept area and provides strategies for effective use. Playing with Sound: A Sound Books Anthology is designed for use in teacher-education settings as part of a music or integrated arts education course. It works equally well as a resource for both novice and experienced educators who are interested in creative approaches to sound and music exploration with their students. The anthology is a compilation of the first six Sound Books: Up and Down Sounds, Big and Small Sounds, Sections of Sound, Layers of Sound, Grouping Sound, and Moving Sound. In a classroom or group-learning setting, this anthology would best serve as a teacher guide, alongside the individual concept-specific books, which are recommended for use with students.

Grouping Sound is the fifth publication in the series and focuses on musical meter - the ways in which we organize strong and weak beats within musical compositions. Through straightforward and compelling visual images that depict bigger and smaller sounds in organized collections, both common and less common musical meters are introduced. Learners are encouraged to use their voices, instruments, bodies, and found sounds to create and combine the beat patterns to develop a wide range of metrical possibilities and expertise.
