Nutcracker Inspired Orff Instrument Exploration
Monday, 24 November, 2025
This episode of the podcast is a replay containing the audio version of the Musical Monday LIVE video recorded on 11/24/25. This week I shared some Nutcracker-inspired ideas for instrument exploration on the Orff/pitched percussion instruments. If you're not familiar with musical Mondays, every Monday night at 8 p.m. Eastern time I go live on Facebook and Instagram to share about the lessons that I'm using in class with my students. I give a recap of my K-5 lessons and then do a deep dive about one grade level and share the books, instruments, songs, and process that I use to teach the lesson to kids. This podcast episode contains all the audio from the Musical Monday video, but if you'd like to see a replay of the video itself you can follow this link to the archived video on YouTube.
