Just ask the fifth and sixth grade students in Darla VanSickles music classes at Paradise Knolls and Upper Greenwood Lake schools what music and brooms have in common. Using sweep brooms, hand brooms, dust pans and trash cans as instruments, they were able to perform a percussion ensemble called Clean Sweep. They experimented with a variety of ways to produce the sounds they wanted from their instruments and then combined these sounds by reading rhythm patterns and syncopations from a percussion ensemble score - and the music room floor had never looked so sparkling clean.
