Description

This game, originating in 18th century Europe, is credited to Mozart. This musical game of 'chance' is played when dice are used to create music from pre-composed musical measures. You simply roll the dice and the musical measure with the coordinating number is used to compose a piece of music. This composition 'game' can be played individually or in teams of 2 or more.

Check out additional FREE info on this lesson by looking at my blog post!

Included in this NO-PREP, print and go, package is:

  • 1 class hand out
  • 2 dice templates (numbers 1-6 and 7-12)
  • 2 unique student composition worksheets (that walks your students through the entire musical dice game and musical composition)
  • 1 extra sheet of staff paper

This is an easy and really engaging lesson for upper elementary and beyond. Your options are limitless with this! Have students create their music using 1 or both dice, copy the compositions onto the staff paper, and bring it to an instrument to play. This could, potentially, be a multi-lesson project.

    Mozart Dice Game

    Posted by ROE on Feb 20th 2022

    Nicely laid out and easy to use. I had hoped that someone had had the idea to make a student-version of this item (Würfelspiel by Mozart) and was happy to find it here!
