and one of our most exciting additions ever...

Toccata in D Minor, from the larger work Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, is one of Johann Sebastian Bach's greatest works for the organ. We've created two versions for MMF! The first version is perfect for piano students with two or three years of experience. The second version is the real thing, with every one of the notes Bach wrote for this celebrated work.

We hope you will enjoy playing it as much as we enjoyed creating it for you.

It All Adds Up! Rhythm Worksheets
We've added two more It All Adds Up! Rhythm Worksheets!

Drill basic rhythmic values with these musical math fact worksheets. Provide the answers for the first column of "facts", and then try to beat your score with more correct answers, or by racing the clock to complete the second and third columns in record time. This activity is great fun for the music classroom, as kids work together in pairs racing to be the first to complete the worksheet!

It All Adds Up! | Worksheet One (Whole/Half/Quarter)
It All Adds Up! | Worksheet Two (Half/Quarter/Eighth)
It All Adds Up! | Worksheet Three (Whole/Dotted Half/Half)
