Music suggestions for group? (children and adolescents)

[Guest guest]

Good morning all,

I am running art therapy groups with children ages 7-22, in groups divided by

age. During art making, I would like to sometimes play music. Does anyone have

any specific suggestions for good instrumental albums? Most of the kids prefer

hip hop and rap.

Thank you!

Lena,

The bands 2Cellos and Escala do a combo of string & electronic remixes of

popular and classical songs- all instrumental. I like the self-titled albums of

each. Most songs are pretty upbeat though. You can also check out Nuttin But

Stringz, but I think their album " From the Subway to the Charts " is about half

string instrumental and half string & rap. I haven't heard it in awhile so I

don't remember if the lyrics were all appropriate.
