0:01:59 > 0:02:02- I knew it wasn't a real storm.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06- So, you were making that sound? - Using these.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08- What are they?

0:02:54 > 0:02:59- I've finally found my instrument.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03- It's easy. I've just got to hit it.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07- No, you must read the music - and follow the beat.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12- What? Follow the beat? - Read the music?
0:03:13 > 0:03:15- What are you talking about?
0:03:15 > 0:03:18- Timpani is an important part - of the orchestra.
0:03:42 > 0:03:47- You must know when to play - and when not to play.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49- That's difficult.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52- You must practise but it's fun.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- Is there another instrument - I could play? An easy one?
0:03:56 > 0:03:59- There are no easy instruments - to play.
0:03:59 > 0:04:03- Yes, yes, you must practise, - blah, blah, blah.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06- Is there one I can play now?
0:04:06 > 0:04:06- Is there one I can play now?- - Percussion.
0:04:07 > 0:04:08- What's that?
0:04:08 > 0:04:12- The timpani is part - of the percussion section.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18- What other instruments - make up the percussion section?
0:04:18 > 0:04:19- The triangle.
0:04:21 > 0:04:25- Don't be so silly. - The triangle is a shape.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28- It's not an instrument.
0:04:29 > 0:04:34- A triangular instrument. - I like the sound that it makes.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36- Can I have a go?
0:04:41 > 0:04:43- I've had a good idea.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46- No, not a good idea, a great idea.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49- I'll play the triangle - and you can play the timpani...
0:04:49 > 0:04:51- ..on Dona Direidi's rap.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54- Off we go.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03- # I'm Dona, Dona D-reidi! - Yeah, that's me
0:05:04 > 0:05:08- # If you don't like me, - it's your problem obviously
0:05:08 > 0:05:12- # Yeah, I'm Dona, Dona D-reidi! - Yeah, that's me
0:05:12 > 0:05:16- # If you don't like me, - it's your problem obviously #
0:05:22 > 0:05:24- Wah-wah-wee-wah.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28- That rap sounds better - with percussion instruments.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31- It's so important - to have all kinds of instruments.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35- Woodwind instruments. - String instruments.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38- And percussion instruments.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42- Hey. I've had another good idea.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46- Do you want to do something - special with me, Dona Direidi?
0:05:46 > 0:05:48- Right then.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54- Not everyone - has their own instruments.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57- I've decided to make instruments.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59- Percussion instruments.
0:05:59 > 0:06:03- Woodwind instruments.
0:06:03 > 0:06:07- And first, a string instrument.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09- The guitar.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12- To make a guitar, you need...
0:06:12 > 0:06:15- ..an empty ice cream tub...
0:06:15 > 0:06:16- ..a felt-tip pen.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18- A pair of scissors.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21- Elastic bands...
0:06:21 > 0:06:26- ..and these pins - that bend both ways.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31- Cardboard. Stars to decorate - the guitar. And paint.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35- Obviously, - pink is my favourite colour.
0:06:37 > 0:06:44- First, draw the outline - of the guitar on the cardboard.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46- Like this.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51- Be careful.
0:06:53 > 0:06:58- Next, use the lid - of the ice cream tub...
0:06:58 > 0:07:00- ..to make a hole in the middle.
0:07:04 > 0:07:11- Then, you need to be careful or - ask Mam or Dad to cut out the shape.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17- And there we go. - The main body of the guitar.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20- Now then, - can you paint it pink for me?
0:07:21 > 0:07:23- OK.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- I'll make the guitar bridge.
0:07:28 > 0:07:29- Do you like pink?
0:07:29 > 0:07:30- Do you like pink?- - Yes.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34- Good. - Can you paint the guitar bridge too?
0:07:34 > 0:07:35- OK.
0:07:36 > 0:07:37- Here you go.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41- Great. A pink guitar.
0:07:41 > 0:07:45- Next, wait for the paint to dry.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49- The paint is now dry.
0:07:49 > 0:07:54- Next, cut holes on either side - of the ice cream tub...
0:07:55 > 0:07:57- ..to make room - for the guitar bridge.
0:07:57 > 0:07:58- Like this.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02- Take care with the scissors.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08- A hole on either side - to make room for the guitar bridge.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12- Steffan, - you can prepare the strings.
0:08:12 > 0:08:18- Take an elastic band and snip it - to make one long string.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23- Tie each end to two of the pins.
0:08:23 > 0:08:24- Can you do that?
0:08:24 > 0:08:25- Can you do that?- - No problems.
0:08:26 > 0:08:32- While Steff does that, I'll push the - bridge through the ice cream tub.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36- Place it in the hole - in the middle of the guitar.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41- Attach the strings to the guitar.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- Make holes in the bridge - of the guitar...
0:08:45 > 0:08:48- ..and push the pins - through the hole.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- Split them at the back - and fasten them.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55- There are the strings.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59- Next, all we have to do - is decorate the guitar.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05- As well as making a guitar, - we've made a drum.
0:09:07 > 0:09:08- And a trumpet.
0:09:10 > 0:09:15- Thanks for teaching me all about the - orchestra's percussion instruments.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18- You're welcome.
0:09:18 > 0:09:24- Before you go, do you want to hear - a rap about percussion instruments?
0:09:24 > 0:09:27- Here it is. From me, Dona Direidi.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31- # Percussion instruments - are a lot of fun
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- # They make such a loud sound - as well you know
0:09:34 > 0:09:37- # Keep the beat and keep counting
0:09:37 > 0:09:40- # As you hit the instruments - with a stick
0:09:40 > 0:09:42- # All kinds of instruments - produce a wonderful sound
0:09:43 > 0:09:46- # Stand up, listen to the music - and dance together
0:09:46 > 0:09:49- # Percussion and string instruments
0:09:49 > 0:09:54- # You blow into some instruments, - I love to hear their sound
0:09:59 > 0:10:01- # Drum, boom, boom, - I like the sound of the drum
0:10:02 > 0:10:04- # The sound has woken my friend - and now she's wide awake
0:10:04 > 0:10:07- # I'll choose something quiet, - a triangle or a tambourine
0:10:08 > 0:10:10- # I apologise - for making so much noise
0:10:10 > 0:10:13- # All kinds of instruments - produce a wonderful sound
0:10:14 > 0:10:16- # Stand up, listen to the music - and dance together
0:10:17 > 0:10:19- # Percussion and string instruments
0:10:20 > 0:10:22- # You blow into some instruments, - I love to hear their sound

0:10:29 > 0:10:32- # Percussion and string instruments
0:10:32 > 0:10:36- # You blow into some instruments, - I love to hear their sound #
0:10:36 > 0:10:36- .
