Ten Pieces at Home

Here you will find weekly activities to share at home. Each week includes a Ten Pieces film to watch and enjoy and a linked creative activity that can be completed by children at home without any special materials or preparation. A perfect, simple and easy way to keep listening, enjoying and creating music at this time.

  • This week, 27th April: Tell a story with your very own body percussion music... Join presenter Lucy Drever and members of the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra as they guide you in building your very own minimalist piece of music. Get creative with body percussion and storytelling, using Steve Reich's Music for 18 Musicians as inspiration. First... Explore Music for 18 Musicians with CBBC's Naomi Wilkinson and discover the short motifs, beats, pulses and repeating patterns that make Steve Reich’s music so exciting. You can see the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra performing his music alongside students from The National Youth Orchestra of Scotland and The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. Then... Get your hands, feet and imaginations ready as we compose our own piece of minimalism! What does the piece remind you of? Can you conjure up a storyline using the music as inspiration?
