Criancas Da Canoa (Canoe Children)

With a title that translates to Canoe Children in English, this is a lively medley of three Brazilian children's songs -- Capelinha de Melao (Little Chapel of Melon), A Canoa Virou (The Canoe Tipped Over), and Ciranda, Cirandinha (Circle, Little Circle). The tunes are generously shared by all sections, and the momentum pushes forward to an energetic ending. As the host of the 2014 Soccer World Cup and the 2016 Summer Olympics, this is the perfect time to share Brazil's vibrant musical tradition with your students. Duration 2:55.
