Before there were microphones to make our voices louder, brass instruments were used to send messages over long distances. Pair up students and have each team create four different tunes for each of the following directions: left, right, backwards, and forwards. Allow a few teams to demonstrate these musical commands to the group. Have each set of partners start at opposite ends of the room and see how well their commands work. The tunes can be worked out vocally or on Orff instruments.
