Need to connect with your kids with classical music amped up a bit?

Have your cake and eat it too when you involve them in bucket drumming with a new TRAP/Dubstep Remix version of the famous theme from Ludwig van Beethoven's famous piano piece "Fur Elise"

There are four all-color coded slides along with the form identifiers listed next to each phrase. Discuss form with the students and teach hem (by rote) the rhythms on the powerpoint with the corresponding repeats (most are repeated 2 times ). Then, apply it to drums!

All regular notation is to be played on the buckets (or drums, or ground, however you wish), and the X notation (with a down stem) are played as stick clicks above their head (or you could apply it to a tambourine or other auxiliary instrument)

You can find the accompaniment track here to play along:
