"Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush" is a classic English nursery and movement song that pairs a simple, circular melody with actions children can perform together. On a steel tongue drum the gentle, revolving phrase structure feels almost meditative, each repeat of the tune adding a fresh sense of anticipation. The straightforward melodic contour and small range make it an ideal early piece for young beginners, particularly those who enjoy learning through movement and play.
How to play Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush on a tongue drum
The numbers above are the standard tongue-drum number notation. Each digit is a note of the C Major Pentatonic scale, counting up from the lowest tongue. A dot above a number raises it one octave; a dot below lowers it. The small teal letters show the matching key in the Tongue Drum Online player.
Start slowly, one phrase at a time. Let each note ring out fully before striking the next — the long decay is the whole character of the instrument. This is a beginner arrangement and a simplified, single-instrument version of Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush.
