Description
There's a ninja on the loose and he's sneaking through the orchestra. But not for long! Your students will love making up storylines for what happens next in this colorful Asian-flavored piece that uses only the notes of the D Major scale. There are plenty of great teaching opportunities here for your first-year students, including pizzicato, accents, crescendos, and melody/accompaniment balance. Fun for everyone! (2:15)

Everything that went wrong with my orchestra playing ninja.. Cellos/Basses starting off with a horrible out of tune note Violins/Violas squeaking We decided it was a good time to do this at a concert. This happened a while ago and I somehow find this in my recommendations Edit: fOok. People are actually liking this?

I played this song with all of my 5th grade, and 9 other schools' fifth grades, and 10 middle schools with all 7th and 8th graders, and we had to take up a whole entire hotel to do it Edit: if you are wondering why there is no sixth grade was because they had their own orchestra gather thing It was a mess lol

We were gonna play this for my last 7th grade orchestra concert and before my orchestra class I would come practice a bit and I tried it before everyone else and fell in love with it but then when I went to class that same day, the whole class said it was too easy and boring!? So we ended up playing Mandalorian 😭

I just played this song in concert. I'm in the sixth grade orchestra and even though we played it a bit slower I was still able to follow along with the rest of the cellos!
