The Polka Dot Polka

As the title suggests, this nod to the fleet-footed dance of the 1800s, “The Polka Dot Polka,” is all about dots—dots over, under, and after notes! Written as an etude to enhance your young orchestra’s understanding of dotted quarter note rhythms and staccato bow strokes, this selection—in true Richard Meyer style—is sure to challenge all of your students and get your audience dancing in the aisles! For extra fun, “push” the tempo a bit (or even a lot!)—the faster the better! (2:30). This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.
