March 21, 2014
Every week we ask a question about a famous piece of music. This is help children listen more closely and learn about how music is made. Last week we asked you to name 2 instruments that can be heard at the beginning of the song ‘In the Mood’? Possible answers were: saxophone, drums or trombone. This week:

Can you name 2 of Duke Ellington’s roles in music?

The answer will be posted with next week's question.
