Cue Moment - Work it Out Wombats!
Cue moment - Work it Out Wombats! šµ
Writing for kids ages 3 - 6 usually means pianos, xylophones, marimbas, sometimes a ukulele and some light drum kit percussion. But Work it Out Wombats! took the instrumentation palette up a notch by wanting our composers to use home made noises.
In this fun cue youāll hear beatboxing, quirky vocal embellishments and overall just a light and upbeat energy throughout the whole thing!
Thanks so much to our friends over at WGBH & Pipeline Studios for bringing us on to write on this great show!
