Rock Cross Buns

“Rock Cross Buns” is a dynamic and engaging arrangement by Valerie Shanley of the classic “Hot Cross Buns.” Designed to appeal to beginning band students, this innovative version allows students to use just six notes while keeping them active and engaged through body percussion parts. Each section of the band gets a turn to play this familiar tune in a fresh, rock-inspired arrangement, making it a fun and educational experience. Perfect for introducing young musicians to ensemble playing and rhythm coordination, “Rock Cross Buns” is a lively and interactive addition to the beginning band repertoire.
