Ninna Nanna

This beautiful, lilting Italian nursery rhyme comes with Italian and English lyrics.

It is great for:

  • Singing in, and teaching 6/8 metre.
  • Singing with a relaxed, slower beat.
  • Preparing, teaching and practising easier rhythms in 6/8. (ti-ti-ti; ta ti; tum; too)
  • Demonstrating that some songs finish on the melodic element 'high do'!
