Changes: Professor Majorchord's Music Lesson

Latest revision as of 21:51, 28 July 2022

Professor Majorchord's Music Lesson is the 20th episode of the second season of The Kidsongs Television Show.

Plot

The Kidsongs Kids have set out to broadcast a lot in this musical instrument themed episode. Billy and Ruby explain why they are called Biggles -- because they can be big or little. Billy gets into the musical act when he pulls out a flute and plays a few notes, and later says that he especially likes drums and demonstrates on a timpani drum. Billy plays a guitar during the sing along, "Here We Go 'Round the Mulberry Bush" while Ruby shows the movements to follow along, and Professor Majorchord pays a visit to teach all he knows about music.

 == Plot ==
+The [[Kidsongs Kids]] have set out to broadcast a lot in this musical instrument themed episode. [[Billy Biggle|Billy]] and [[Ruby Biggle|Ruby]] explain why they are called Biggles -- because they can be big or little. Billy gets into the musical act when he pulls out a flute and plays a few notes, and later says that he especially likes drums and demonstrates on a timpani drum. Billy plays a guitar during the sing along, "Here We Go 'Round the Mulberry Bush" while Ruby shows the movements to follow along, and [[Professor Majorchord]] pays a visit to teach all he knows about music.
-Today's theme of this show is music and musical instruments. Billy and Ruby also get in to the musical mood, too, as the hosts talk about the many different instruments we can all play! Professor Majorchord will also show us that the orchestra uses four sections: the strings, brass, percussion and woodwind. As Billy plays many different instruments like the keyboard, drums (especially when he likes all drums and demonstrates the tympani), guitar, and flute, each instrument will be featured in each song. It's gonna be a musical day for the kids and the Biggles to enjoy!
