Oh! The Britches Full of Stitches is a lively Irish polka with a wonderfully infectious bounce, and its short, repetitive phrases make it a great tune for learning by ear. This week we'll learn the melody, explore how articulation and the spaces between notes create that characteristic polka lift, then bring it all together in Friday's relaxed play-along.
