Things to remember when composing your
NEW MELODY CARD:


To stay in 4/4 time, think of a “Du” or “Du-De” rhythm pattern you like that fits into 4 beats. Then play a melody on the bells that fits your pattern, using the same pitches as in the other cards (CDEFG).


Things to remember when composing your LYRICS:

Don't copy! When you copy someone else's lyrics and say they are yours, it's called "plagiarism" and it's against the law! If what you wrote sounds the same as a song that's already been written, try something else.

Use the keyboard below to practice the melodies above and to compose new melodies!
