The Kodály Society of Ontario is happy to share another song with you all! This one is called “I Don’t Care if the Rain Comes Down”, a traditional American folk song. It is being led by the amazing Gena Norbury at a PD session in Thunder Bay. Sitting in a circle and rhythm sticks add more layers to this catchy tune!

The Kodály Society of Ontario is happy to share another singing game you can use in your music classrooms. This song is called “Dipidu” and is led by the amazing Gena Norbury.
Dipidu is an Ugandan Greeting Song in 3/4 and 2/4 time. Although the meter of the song shifts repeatedly between 3 and 2 beats per measure, the beat remains steady, giving the music a steady but seemingly complete sense of rhythm.
A great song taught by the venerable Gena Pretty-Norbury
Kids love cup games, definitely a keeper!
