Ensemble Performances by Older Kindergarteners Heat Up! A Collection of Recommended Song Ideas for Recitals

10 years as a kindergarten teacher / elementary school teacher / junior and senior high school teacher / childminderkepiko
Graduated from Kunitachi College of Music, Faculty of Music (now: Department of Music Culture and Education, Early Childhood Music Education major). In elementary school, my homeroom teacher was Jun Kusaba, a game researcher. After graduating from university, I worked for 10 years as a kindergarten teacher and for 7 years as an after-school childcare instructor, then took a post as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I also engaged in activities that shared Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational play, working with many children. Afterwards, through freelance writing, planning, and editing work at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and conveying ideas. Leveraging the perspective cultivated in educational settings and my experience as an editor, I aim to deliver practical information—focusing on fields related to music and children—that values both input and output. Hobbies include instruments, singing, handcrafts, toys, drawing, traditional play, the outdoors, books, DIY, and crafts. Special skill: spinning-top tricks.
20 years of experience as a nursery teacher / kindergarten teacherhiyoko sensei
I’m Hiyoko-sensei, a former nursery school teacher from Hyogo Prefecture. Ever since I was five, my dream was to become a childcare worker, and before I knew it, 20 years had passed since I achieved that dream. Through singing and playing with the children, I kept working with the spirit of someone in their twenties, even as I increasingly felt my physical limits year by year (haha). From here on, I’d like to share helpful information carefully and thoughtfully, drawing on my on-site experience.

There are likely many ensemble pieces performed at senior kindergarteners’ recitals and graduation ceremonies.

Playing in an ensemble with all the children together not only creates fun memories but also provides an important opportunity to foster the joy of making music together and to develop expressive skills.

Here, we introduce recommended ensemble pieces that senior kindergarten children can enjoy performing.

We’ve gathered popular selections among nursery and kindergarten teachers, spanning a wide range of genres from pop to classical.

Enjoy performing together as a team and make lasting memories.

A concert performed by the children is a perfect program for a preschool graduation party or ceremony.

Because choir and ensemble pieces aren’t done freely by one person but require coordinating with other parts, they can really show parents how much the children have grown.

The experience of creating one piece of music together with friends will surely be useful after they enter elementary school, too.

It’s an ideal performance to conclude their time in kindergarten or nursery school—one that makes everyone participating smile.
