Musical Improv Games - This is how we do it

Picture

Good for:

Rhyming, setting up a rhyme, rapping skills, flow.

Method:

  • Can be played solo or with a partner.
  • You will need a load of different objects if playing alone, or if with another player, they will be 'feeding' you words.
  • Let's say the first word is 'Chair'
  • You start a beat as an accompaniment
  • First line is 'This is how we do it...." Then you set yourself up to rhyme with 'chair'
  • "This is how we do it, when cutting your hair".  Then the second line is the payoff rhyme.
  • "You might want to sit down, on a chair".  
  • In the small gap before the next musical bar either look at a new object if playing solo, or feed the next word verbally 'pen'
  • "This is how we do it, again and again"
  • "If you want to write it, just use a pen" etc.

Tips:

  • Try to keep the flow going.  
  • Keep the words coming smoothly if you are feeding them to the player.
  • As you get more comfortable rhyming, can you make the whole line make sense too?
