Arrangement Details

  • Glockenspiel
  • Alto Metallophone

Sing and play! A very simple but always interesting arrangement. Challenge your young students to synchronize on the Orff instruments and play one of their favorite songs.

The mallet instruments play and double the melody, while the tambourine and bells keep the pulse. In 2/4 and F major. Don’t forget the B-flat!

Play the necessary repetitions according to the song lyrics, which you can find and even print here. On each repetition, one letter of the word BINGO “leaves” the lyrics. The orchestra plays normally without losing the flow. In the end, the lyrics are gone and only the instrumental music remains.
