The
Penta-Goose 70 Pentatonic Art Songs for Children
Poems from Mother Goose Music by Jason Phillips
Nobody should be above writing for children: on the contrary, we should strive to become good enough to do so”. Zoltan Kodaly
i
In the preface to Music in Preschool, 2nd Revised and Expanded Edition, by the Hungarian music educator Katalin Forrai, Jean Sinor wrote, ...not all songs that are taught in Hungarian classrooms inspired by Zoltan Kodaly are folk songs or Josquin motets. There are songs composed for children, notably by Kodaly himself and other eminent composers prompted by his model. For years, Kati Forrai urged me to find English-speaking composers and poets who would collaborate on simple, beautiful songs for young children that would do for our children what the songs of Kodaly and his colleagues did and continue to do for Hungarian children. No matter how many times I told Kati Forrai about my inability to find a composer who could do what was needed to be done, she turned aside my concern and repeated that it was very important to have composed songs to supplement the folk songs and rhymes for this edition of her book. Once in frustration over this problem, I took a book of Mother Goose rhymes and wrote down some melodies for them...I took these songs to Kati when I next saw her, expecting them to be my trump card in our discussion about composed songs: I have not yet found any real composer who can write songs simple enough for preschool children, and look what you get when someone who is not a real composer but who knows children’s music tries to write worthless ditties! On the contrary! These were just the kind of songs she had been hoping for, she said, composed, but in English-language children’s folk style. So this is how...a collection of children’s songs I wrote has found its way into this edition of Music in Preschool. I can only assuage my conscience with the hope that perhaps these songs will prompt some real composer and real poet to create songs that can truly be considered a musical treasure for our youngest musicians. When I read these words, I felt prompted to attempt to meet this challenge and this collection of songs is the result! The sequencing of rhythmic and melodic elements is “Kodaly” inspired and is based on the sequencing for students from pre-school through 4th grade suggested in books such as The Kodaly Method, 2nd ed., by Lois Choksy, though as Kodaly music educators are sure to notice, there are some creative deviations! This book, however, is not meant to be a method, but rather a collection of simple, beautiful, fun songs for children that can supplement and compliment the rich treasure of folk songs any teacher might use in his or her classroom. The layout of the book, including the unaccompanied setting of the music, is inspired by the two great compilations of English language folk songs, Sail Away, and 150 American Folk Songs. I hope this collection can be a worthy companion to both of these. Jason Phillips ii
