All right everyone -- here it is. The song we are going to be working on for the remaining 4 weeks of classes. (By the way -- class is canceled today, March 30). You can download the file below, print it, and begin working on "fleshing it out." Here are some things we will need/want for this song:
- Harmonization (chords)
- Structure (form -- verses, choruses, intros, bridges, interludes, etc.)
- Instrumentation
The list could go on. For example, we could have a drum loop going on. We could have an ostinato in the treble
or bass. We could have an a capella section. We could have a bridge featuring a string quartet. The song could be for a soloist, or an ensemble, or a choir, or a combination of any of those. We could use the idea of a canon to have counter-melodies (descant) going on. The options are endless.
So put some thought into it and bring all your ideas to the next class. This is our song -- don't let it be written without your thoughts put forth. Thanks and God bless!
