Doctor Eisenbart

This easy, humourous song is great for:

  • Analysing form (A, A, B, A).
  • Teaching the melodic element 'low ti'.
  • Teaching the rhythmic elements 'ti' in isolation (i.e. just one quaver / eighth note, rather than two in a group) and 'si' (quaver / eighth note rest)

Historical note included.
