Q3 Blog #10: Core Values3/24/2018
Reflection:
The few main cores of playing music well are notes, tempo, rhythms, melody, and dynamics. During these few weeks I had been practicing on melodies and how the song should sound. One way to change a song sounds, is to change the duration of the notes. Other ways include changing the tempo, how fast or slows the song is played, and the dynamics, how loud or soft the song is played. Just like with other subjects, music is comprised of core values that determined quality of it. Literature has comprehension, composition, analysis, and interpretation. To be master literature is to master all these values that comprises it. Another subject could be Mathematics. It involves memorization, patterns, problem-solving, logical reasoning, and application.

Q3 Blog #9: Scales3/11/2018 Progress: Since the last blog, I have learn to play in G position, on the right. for right hand in it require to place your thumb into g then the next finger onto ascending notes. For left hand, it require you to place for thumb on D and other fingers onto the descending notes. Some songs in the workbook include Love Somebody! and A Friend Like You. I also learn to play the C Major Scale. Reflection:
For my quarter 3 goals, I set out to learn some scales. So far, I know how to play the C Major, which is just one C to the next octave C. It involves only the white keys, so it is is relatively simple. The black keys are the sharp and flat notes. (C#, Eb, F#, G#,Bb) Scales in music provide for you a way to organize music compositions. Players can know what scale their music is composed by looking for the sharp (#) and flats(b). This can tell them about the notes that will appear or how the song will sound to listeners. Knowing how something is organized give you a better understanding of the topic at hand. For a graded assignment, looking at a rubric or knowing how it would be graded would most likely improve your score and learn the material. |
