Children’s songs, 2nd part

Dedicated to childrens’ songs

doc_1_comptines_2_500px_42.jpgBehind the apparent simplicity of the melody and rhythm in children’s songs, there is often a pedagogic goal hidden.
Children’s songs are traditionally passed on orally, like sayings or stories. The use of a certain rhythm helps to learn the song.

Among this playlist is a recording of the Hebrew alphabet by children from Yemen « Aleph-bet : Apprentissage chanté de l’alphabet, Yémen » taken from  Musiques liturgiques juives : Parcours et escales de Hervé Roten
