Music
Types of Music use for Tap Dance
There is a lot of options when it comes to decide what song are you going to use for your tap performance, however you should choose carefully just because tap dancing requires some unique rhythm in order to perform with more pattern.
Here are some examples of Tap dance music.
Funky or Jazzy Songs
Weapon of Choice by Fat boy Slim
Because We Can from Moulin Rouge
James Bond Techno Remix (by Moby I think)
Kids Songs
Reach for the Stars by S Club 7
S Club Party by S Club 7
A lot of songs by Hi 5
Traditional Type Songs
It Don't Mean a Thing if it Ain't Got that Swing
Overture from Chicago
Roxie's Suite from Chicago
Like I have mentioned before tap dance cal also be perform with the cappella method in which no musical accompaniment is provided and dancers creating their own "music" through the sounds of their taps.
This is an example of a Tap performance using both music and the cappella method.
