It is well known that in children's songs the verses are short and repetitive, with simple melodies and rhythms. This was no secret to the great composers and when they wrote for children, whether it being their own children or students, they bore these facts in mind creating short, melodious melodies and powerful rhythms that would connect to the childlike spirit immediately.Everything is fine up to.......games, dances and their world of fantasy. A medieval knight here, there a pirate, a fairy, a magician ... great music enriching them and allowing their imagination to run wild touching a world which if it were not for the music could be deprived of it all.
