Hey All,

For those of you that are enjoying some fun listening, here is another one for you!

While listening think about these questions:
  • What instruments do you hear/see?
  • What instrument families do they belong to (strings, woodwinds, brass, percussion)? How is the sound produced?
  • Close your eyes. What picture comes into your mind as you listen? Is it moving or still?
Other activities to do while listening:
  • Stand up and move to the music. Does it make you want to move fast or slow? Smooth or bumpy? Calm or crazy?
  • Some of the music you hear is improvised, or made up on the spot. Can you improvise? Take out your instrument and try to play or sing along! 
  • Make a recording of your improvisation and bring to group class to share or email to your teacher if you would like it to be uploaded to this blog! :) 
  •  Enjoy!
