Music Time (TV programme)

Music Time is a British educational television program as part of the BBC Schools strand from 23 September 1970 to 18 March 1991. The program is aimed at primary school children aged between 7 and 9. It teaches singing, instrumentation, and basic elements of music theory and performance through simple, easily understandable songs. These often form part of a production intended to be performed by schools, and usually performed at either the start or end of the term. There would often be a pantomime in the autumn term. The program also includes animated films (usually produced by Bura and Hardwick) based on classical works.

Sheet music for the episodes was also produced and sold by the BBC.
