Find three pieces of music and for each piece tell us about the musical element or elements that impressed you the most. Use technical terms (for example, dynamics, rhythm, tempo, etc. –. Refrain from using the same musical element for each piece of music. Broaden out and emphasize a different musical element for each piece of music.
rock, etc., works well. If you use music with words, be sure you are listening for the music itself and not the lyrics. You may talk about how the music “paints” the meaning of the word but don’t get caught up on lyrics; instead, you would tell how the music or voice was used to illustrate the meaning of the word and how that made the word moving.
Listen carefully to each piece of music from the class resources or from YouTube – tell us the name of the piece and the artist/composer.
Refer to the exact part(s) of the piece of the music to make your point (for example: “from the 2 minute mark through the next 30 seconds”).
For example, if you were impressed by a change in the music then you’d identify the musical element that you heard change. The music might have sped up or slowed down, gotten louder (crescendo) or softer (decrescendo), the tempo might have changed (become faster or slower thus changing the mood of the music), etc.
If you used YouTube or any other outside source, include the link(s) in your post or embed the YouTube link into your post
