2008 stage-to-film adaptation of the 1999 West End musical of the same name, based on the songs of successful pop group ABBA.
KS3 idea: The opening section of this trailer has a soundtrack that is very different from the Abba songs used later on. Can pupils give an accurate musical description of the musical texture at the beginning? How exactly does it contrast with what follows and what is the effect of the simpler opening (i.e. why do they think the composer decided to do this)?

Song from Leonard Bernstein's Broadway musical West Side Story.
KS2 idea: An example of music creating mood, the strong feature is alternating 3/4 and 6/8 metre.
Try clapping, tapping or walking along with this alternating pulse, which creates it's own rhythm.
Some good examples of contrasting texture throughout.
