If you feel the way Mari does, don't miss this wonderful collecton of music. "Behind the Bars" will get your intermediate students behind those barred instruments, playing music designed for successful performances. The sophisticated simplicity of these short pieces will enable your students to master them quickly, but that is just the beginning. Once your students have gained confidence playing the basic patterns and harmonies, Mari opens the door to arranging and helps you guide your students to creating performance-length pieces with her tried-and-true approach. This resource includes eleven ostinato-based pieces for barred instruments and non-pitched percussion, as well as teaching suggestions and tips for making your ensembles work. A perfomance CD is also included for your reference. Your students won't believe they are making such incredible music, and your audiences will be astounded.
