Sneak a Peak in our Music Class!

ONE BLOG for all classes :)

Dear parents and students, starting this year the Music and the Drama class blogs will be merged into one, "The Performing Arts" blog.

Since the Performing Arts course includes Music, Drama and Dance all in one I find it more convenient if you can look up the activities, homework, upcoming events etc. through one blog.

Please click on the link below and you will be redirected to the Performing Arts blog.

When Music meets FIne Arts

The best way to approach a period and understand why music was composed in a particular way is to sneak a peak to the general overview of this time.

Talking about Renaissance and Baroque music with the Grade 4s can be really fun, especially when we learn about Art in general.

Ashley and Rachel introduced the magical art of Raphael

and participated lively in the others' presentations :)

Wilson and Dahyun talked about Michaelangelo

Music Gallery: more incredible pictures of the music symbols by Grade 2

Enjoy some more picture of this incredibly inspirational work of our little grade 2s.

Now, Katrina will always remember what a time signature is!

Bass Clef has turned into a mommy with her baby sleeping together.

'We almost look alike!"

A natural can work also a bicycle!

See closer and you'll find that these two sweet eyes are the repeat sign on a barline...

A quarter rest is a baby :)

..and a single eighth note is a fisherman's rod.

Beamed eighth notes work very good as headphones too!

This is really funny!!!

A flat and a quarter are the best friends!

who said that music is not full of games?

Don't bully the flat!!

An accent can be a very dangerous thing!!

Another incredible inspiration from Shunta. A bass clef is a snail.

You can use a forte sign as a remote control for your Wii games!

This is scary!!!! (but so creative!!!)

If you want to set apart the ingredients in your hamburger, do it with a barline!

And a double barline can also be your front door!

Now isn't that beautiful? A treble clef is turned into a cello which reads...in bass clef!

A happy accented note walking her dog :)
