In his Green Childrens-Song-Piano, he is now striking out on a new path that will take young performers to another exciting new playground: chamber music. Schmitz added an easy piano part to the most famous German childrens songs, along with equally easy upper parts which can be played by a recorder, violin or other melody instrument. He selected the childrens songs chiefly on the basis of their popularity: The Green Childrens-Song-Piano is something very special: its songs are really everGREEN!Schmitz added an easy piano part to the most famous German children's songs, along with equally easy upper parts which can be played by a recorder, violin or other melody instrument.

The Belgian composer Nicholas Lens presents extremely varied etudes, exercises and simple phrases with wonderfully telling titles from poetry and everyday world for children and adults. For the most part the studies are tonal and simple and have no constructed line. They are not based on any educational concept but leave the musical dramatization to the pupils and teachers: 'Notes and rhythms are just notes and rhythms, they do not have that many rules, they do not have any pretension, they are just tools for you to use to express what you want to share'.

If I was a grown-up is a song for Children and Baritone voices, composed by Isabelle Aboulker, with lyrics by Eva Janikovszky. It is only a part of the full piece, which is to be sung with a Flute, an Oboe, a Clarinet, a Bassoon and a Piano. Really easy, with range and intervals adapted to children?s capacities, this song is very entertaining in term of lyrics and sonority. The lyrics focuses on what children are always asked to do which is not fun, such as washing hands before dinner, being always nice and quiet, staying seated among other things, while adults can do whatever they want to do. Children then sing what they would do if they were grown-ups. Quite energetic, this song is great for children and would be great for a concert. Isabelle Aboulker is a French composer specially known for her opera, her vocal works, and for her adaptations of stories and fables..
