Music Notes
A place to find out what's going on in Music and Chorus this week!
Today we will walking through the Exhibition together listening to each of the pieces and seeing the pictures. We will not listen to the whole piece but as we listen you may want to write down some notes of what you hear on your hand out. Once we have listened to 1-2 minutes of each of the 10 pieces we will do a little "guessing game." And see if you can guess which picture matches which of the 4 songs I play. Enjoy walking through the pictures at the exhibition! 00:00 - Promenade 01:57 - Gnomus 05:56 - The Old Castle 11:13 - Tuileries 12:18 - Bydlo 15:08 - Promenade 16:08 - Ballet of the Chicks in their Shells 17:21 - Samuel Goldberg & Schmuyle 19:38 - Limoges 21:05 - Catacombs 25:42 - The Hut on Fowl Legs (Baba Yaga) 29:12 - The Great Gate of Kiev Listen to this familiar song from Mocking Jay Part 1. What dynamic(s) do you hear? Today you will work on playing this theme on the glockenspiel. Work on playing this dynamic in different ways. Use this link to complete the Scavenger hunt. You are researching percussion instruments so scroll down to the percussion section (last 6 instruments). Click on each instrument and read about them to fill in any blanks on your sheet and then go on to the next instrument. You WILL have to read about each instrument to answer the questions :) If you finish early work on String family.
