0:00:02 > 0:00:04It's The Let's Go Club - but mini!
0:00:04 > 0:00:07Expect making, exploring, supersizing,
0:00:07 > 0:00:10dancing, fact-finding and laughing.
0:00:10 > 0:00:13We've only got a few minutes, so get ready for more fun
0:00:13 > 0:00:15from The Let's Go Club.
0:00:15 > 0:00:20Fact fans - today, we are finding out all about music.
0:00:20 > 0:00:22The strumming sound of guitar strings.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25The twinkle of a triangle's ding.
0:00:25 > 0:00:28Tickling piano keys from left to right.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30A trumpet's fanfare, loud and bright.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33Drums are banging, symbols clanging,
0:00:33 > 0:00:35a feast for your ears with music facts.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38First up - cows like to listen to music.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40It's UDDERLY true!
0:00:40 > 0:00:44Cows that have gentle music played to them produce more milk
0:00:44 > 0:00:46than cows who don't.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49When cows listen to soothing music at milking time,
0:00:49 > 0:00:52it makes them happy, comfortable and relaxed.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55The happier a cow feels, the more their milk flows.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57So, if you want to double your dairy,
0:00:57 > 0:01:03you'd better put on some MOO-SIC and change the MOO-D!
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Next - mosquitoes impress each other with love songs.
0:01:07 > 0:01:09All mosquitoes buzz -
0:01:09 > 0:01:12it's the sound their wings make when they flap super fast.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16But when a boy mosquito meets a girl mosquito he really likes,
0:01:16 > 0:01:20he flaps his wings faster and faster, then so does she,
0:01:20 > 0:01:23until they are flapping in time together.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27And this little sign of energetic affection makes the sound of
0:01:27 > 0:01:29their buzzing exactly the same.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33Sounds like these music-loving insects really are in tune!
0:01:33 > 0:01:37Next - in West Africa, there are drums that can talk.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41Talking drums have been used to send messages from one village
0:01:41 > 0:01:46to another for hundreds of years - quicker than on foot or by horse.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Each drum is wide at the ends and thinner in the middle,
0:01:49 > 0:01:53and when you squeeze them under your arm and tap the skins,
0:01:53 > 0:01:55they make lots of different sounds.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59A good drummer can play noises and rhythms that sound
0:01:59 > 0:02:04just like a person's voice. Now, that's hard to beat!
0:02:04 > 0:02:07And finally - brain freeze could help you be
0:02:07 > 0:02:11a classical music composer. Ice cool!
0:02:11 > 0:02:16Ludwig van Beethoven, a famous German composer, used to dunk his
0:02:16 > 0:02:20head in a bucket of ice cold water before he wrote a piece of music.
0:02:20 > 0:02:25Beethoven claimed this chilly custom helped him to get in tune
0:02:25 > 0:02:26and think of new rhythms.
0:02:26 > 0:02:30Well, it must have worked, because Beethoven wrote some of
0:02:30 > 0:02:33the most well-known classical music for orchestras.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37But please, don't try this at home, it's SNOW joke!
0:02:39 > 0:02:42You can join The Let's Go Club, too.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Grab a grown-up and head to the CBeebies website.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48There are songs to sing, things to make and do,
0:02:48 > 0:02:50and CBeebies Radio, too.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Remember, we're the club that never closes!
