Band We are now focusing on dynamics.

Dynamics means how quietly or loudly a piece of music should be played. Dynamics are an important way of conveying the mood of a piece and your use of dynamics is a marked element of your performance. Think of your favorite song, write a short paragraph describing the dynamics of that song.

Think of your favorite song, write a short paragraph describing the dynamics of that song.

There are four main dynamics: piano, mezzo piano, mezzo forte and forte. Any extremely quiet or extremely loud dynamics are shown by repeating the letter. Write a paragraph describing how your favorite song would sound if the dynamics were changed drastically.

Orchestra If you were to pick up a random piece of music, what would you see?

In music, we write everything on what we call a music staff The music staff is made up of exactly 5 lines and 4 spaces

Every line or space represents a white key on a piano keyboard. Depending on your instrument, we use symbols called clefs to assign certain notes to each line and space There are three clefs that we mainly use in orchestra: Treble Clef – Violins

First, let’s talk about the Treble Clef!

The treble clef is also known as the “G Clef” This clef circles around the second line in our staff known as G. Any note placed on this line becomes G.

The note in the space above is A

The note in the space above is A

So far this week we have covered what our staff looks like, how many lines/spaces it has, what each of our three clefs look like and looked at the treble clef more in depth. Make sure that in your notes you have drawn a staff with the treble clef and the notes in the lines and spaces as was shown for Wednesday and Thursday’s assignment! (You will use this for reference!) For your assignment, we will be working on reading notes on the ledger lines of our staff using the treble clef. Use deductive reasoning, the line

Alto Clef – Violas

Bass Clef – Cellos and Basses Bass Clef – Cellos and Basses

For your assignment, answer the following questions:

1. Write three things that you see in the random music example.

2. How many lines are in our music staff?

3. How many spaces are in our music staff?

4. Draw each of the three clefs we use in orchestra. Make sure to copy them exactly as in the pictures.

The note in the line above A is B

We continue adding notes to the rest of the lines and spaces

What happens when we have no more lines or spaces? Do we run out of notes to play?! Nope! We use ledger lines to continue adding notes!

and space pattern of naming our notes and what you know about the music alphabet to answer the following questions: If you have a note on the first ledger line above the staff that has a treble clef, what note would this be? If you have a note that rests above the first ledger line above the staff what note would it be? If we extend our staff downward, would we go forwards or backwards in our music alphabet? If you place a note in the first space in our staff (below G) what note would this be?

By adding a ledger line to our next note, we can now place the next note A

We can continue to add notes to our staff using ledger lines.

Answer these questions:

1. What are the small lines that extend our staff called?

2. In which direction can ledger lines

Choir Today we will draw a “fa” on the staff. First we have to draw our staff again. Remember: 5 lines and four spaces. The

handsign for the “fa” is: Fa is the 4th note in the scale. This is what fa looks

like when we draw it on the staff: Notice that fa lands in the first space at the bottom. Now you will draw “fa” on your staff.

Notice that fa lands in the first space at the bottom. Now you will draw “fa” on your staff.

The next note we will draw is “sol” or “so”. So is the 5th note of our scale. Lets practice drawing our staff once again. The handsign

for so is: This is what so looks like on the staff:

Notice that so is on the second line from the bottom. Now you will draw the “so” on your staff.

This is what so looks like on the staff:

Notice that so is on the second line from the bottom. Now you will draw the “so” on your staff.

Today I want to review the handsigns we have learned: do-re-mi-fa-so.

Use the chart above to go up the scale. Starting on do, at around your

belly button, you should lift your hand up to re, higher on “mi”, higher on “fa” and so should be your highest note above the top of your head. Practice using your hand signs and chanting the notes.

Art This week you will be creating an artwork of your choice based on the styles we have recently learned about. You may create anything school appropriate using found objects, Warhol style art, and line emotions/actions. You may mix and match for your final artwork of your choice.
