I Like The Flowers

  • This beautiful 4 part canon is a favourite with students.
  • Have students write their own lyrics about things that they like!
  • A fantastic song for preparing and practising the rhythm 'tim-ka'.
  • A great song for preparing and practising the melodic elements 'fa' and 'low ti'.
  • This canon works best if it finishes on the first beat of the song.
  • Works well in different modes (with older students)!
