I Am The Captain Of A Pirate Ship is a favourite Beginner Duet from the book Lollipop Man by Anita Hewitt Jones. It's a great piece for Beginner violinists (Level 1) and is based on the D Major scale in 1st position.
If you're practising the piece on your own, mute the other part on the digital notation player, then you can play a duet with your computer or phone!
Practise singing before you play!
Here are some useful words that you can use - they fit rhythmically with the top line (Part 1):
I am the Captain of a Pirate Ship!
I am the Captain of a Pirate Ship!
Pirate Ship, I'm the Captain of the Ship
Yes I am the Captain of a Pirate Ship
Pirate Ship, I'm the Captain of the Ship
Captain of a Pirate Ship!
