Lucky Little Shamrock, The
by Teresa JenningsFor your celebration of St. Patrick's Day or spring, or just for the fun of it, this little ditty will get your youngest students marching around in no time. The simple song is all in unison and tells the story of a little shamrock who is lucky enough to find a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. The little shamrock decides to share his new wealth with all of the other shamrocks in the town. Naturally, they are so pleased, they happily march around with delight!
The third time through the song is the marching section. On the recording, the piccolos play a duet, while the pizzicato strings continue to provide the percussive backdrop.
Kit includes a bonus animated video by Bill Belongia. (from Music K-8, Vol. 10, No. 4)
