Using Instruments (timbre, structure, texture)
When instruments are used instead of voices, using two instruments played together in line 2 creates a thicker musical texture. I added a steady pulse on the xylophone, to keep everyone in time, which added another layer of complexity.
2/ Unstructured Seaside Score (texture, timbre, pitch)
This score is more of a suggestion and is less formally structured than the previous one so it may focus more on the elements of texture, timbre and pitch. The children have the same choice of instruments but the structure is less formal so each group of children can make their own interpretation.
