Listening Log Book No.2
Please use your resources link to complete this assignment: https://digital.wwnorton.com/enjmusic13
As you are reading through the book and come across your “Listening Guides” choose a piece of music that strikes you and write a listening log on it.
Your listening log should consist of 2 paragraphs about your selection. Here are some ideas you will want to discuss:
- musical era (time period/when composed)
- composer name
- tempo (speed)
- texture (voicing/instrumentation/ensemble)
- any influences you hear from previous music you learned about/listened to
- personal opinion of the piece. Do you like it? Do you hate it? Does it remind you of a piece of music you like to listen to? Have you heard it somewhere? A commercial? Sampled in a song?
Hint-Hint!
You may want to use the “what to listen for” section for each piece in the book. This is why you should do this as you go along. 🙂
ATTENTION: You may NOT pick the following pieces as they will be assigned later:
- Berlioz: Symphonie Fantastique
- Williams: Imperial March
- Video Game Music: Uematsu, “Aerith’s Theme”
