Feb 8th: Music

On February 8th, we discussed different chords and scales as well as terminology. We learnt what an Arpeggio is, Brata chord, Block chord and Alberti bass. The keywords were major, minor, pentatonic, discord, glissando, sequence, octaves and tremolo.  We then looked at a picture or a sunrise and had to come up with a short piece of mood music to describe it using some of these techniques.  We then did the same for a man in the shadow; this piece was more sinister and used lower notes at the bass.  We were set the homework task to find an existing piece of music that could portray these two photos.  For the sunrise, I chose the Rainman theme and for the man in the shadows, Tubular Bells.
