This short video designed for Year 4 and 5 science pupils uses drumming to illustrate the way pitch and volume can vary according to different factors.
A professional group of drummers visits a primary school and holds a musical workshop. The musicians show the class how the tightness of the drum skin alters the pitch, and how drum size affects music volume.
The Key Stage 2 pupils get to join in with the drumming and find out how to create different pitches, volumes and rhythms.
