It was at a flute convention, of all places, where the composer learned how to beatbox. Greg Pattillo, the flutist of the ensemble Project Trio, taught a roomful of (mostly) flute players how to make a few sounds, and she couldn't believe how easy, and effective, it was! She figured, if a random bunch of adult flute players can do this, it should be a piece of cake for students. Inspired by this new-found knowledge, she composed 7th Street Beat, writing beatbox percussion into the parts of all the instruments. The sounds imitate percussive effects normally made by a drum set. The beatbox vocal lines are optional - they are reinforcements for the beatbox sounds in the string parts. Also optional (but highly recommended!) is the improvisation section starting at m. 49. Don't tell the students any rules about what notes to play or not play - simply offer them the opportunity to make up whatever they like, to show off their abilities and musical personalities!.It was at a flute convention, of all places, where the composer learned how to beatbox.

Can a song change a nation? In 1964, Marvin Gaye, record producer William Mickey Stevenson, and Motown songwriter Ivy Jo Hunter wrote Dancing in the Street. The song was recorded at Motown's Hitville USA Studio by Martha and the Vandellas, with lead singer Martha Reeves arranging her own vocals. Released on July 31, the song was supposed to be an upbeat dance recording---a precursor to disco, and a song about the joyousness of dance. But events overtook it, and the song became one of the icons of American pop culture. Told by the writer who is legendary for finding the big story in unlikely places, Ready for a Brand New Beat chronicles that extraordinary summer of 1964 and showcases the momentous role that a simple song about dancing played in history.
