For Christmas Mom gave us each a set of musical pipes. If they were all hung from a rod then one person could play then and they would be called chimes. Since they were all loose pipes about the most that any one person can play is 3. So, unless you only want to play hot cross buns, you need the assistance of several friends. To break in my new set of pipes, I had a group of people over. We used the pipes and wore the crowns from some musical party crackers Mom had give me last year. The favorite some was "A whole new world" from Aladin. But we were also very proud of ourselves for working out Nathan directing us. Nathan is a drummer in a real band as so actually cares about things like rhythm and meter. He would count us in like a real band "1 and 2 and 3 and 4." The count in may be the only part of the song that was actually on beat, but it was still fun.
The songs that everyone agreed we should add to the list were Jurassic Park and Chariots of Fire.

I have the music here to transcribe Chariots of Fire. Just need to track down Jurassic Park. Your party looked super fun. Lots more fun than stringing up all the pipes on a rack and playing them by yourself!
