ATL Skills:
I used communication skills and thinking skills mainly for me to master my exam pieces. Communicating skills was definitely significant, as I had to ask for guidance from the teacher in order to understand my strength and weaknesses of playing a certain note. As trombone was an instrument that highly depended on positioning and hearing, it was inevitable to ask for professional help in order to play the correct note, in a broader and fruitful manner. As for thinking skills, it was a challenge for me to read through the notes while playing my trombone. It was a challenge that could only be solved by practice. I had to do some thinking in order to familiarise my hearing and arms into certain pitches and positions. Therefore, the best way was really by just playing and playing as much as I could, and choosing the best one.

Difficulties in PDCA?
My greatest challenge was the DO step. This was because I had very limited time to practice my pieces, which really impacted my skills in note reading and pitch hearing.

How do you interpret "articulation" ?
To me, articulations are just like someone's mood. Based on how the notes are played, the audiences basically gets the mood and the flow of the whole music. It's definitely a great ingredient to make the music piece much interesting with unique articulations in every few bars.

# data[].attributes.body
Are you able to use ATL skills to help you master the exam pieces?

Yes, I was able to utilise the ATL skills such as communicator and self management skills. Communicator as I was able to portray the piece of music, through playing the trumpet. Furthermore I my sight reading and fingering of the music notes has improved drastically enabling me to play whilst reading with ease. Self management skill as I had to control to amount of air utilised and the shape of my mouth to reach the tone of the notes played.

Which section of the PDCA you find most difficult to complete

I do not have any difficulty with the PDCA.

How do you interpret the articulations?

I can interpret the articulations through listening to the note played by the teacher, hence practicing and assuming the air speed and shape of the mouth to reach the optimum accuracy.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes I was able to use the ATL skill as I was a communicator by asking my friends and teacher about how to play the note and asking my teacher how does the pitch if the sound have to be. PDCA cycle I started with do then only I corrected my pitch and fingering, and at last I did my piece. I understand by music can be not only heard but can also I felt my the vibration of the sound

1) chromatic scale is used thoroughly throughout the 12 tone series. In a single line, the 12 tones of the chromatic scale can not be repeated, only after 12 tones, the notes utilised may be repeated.

2) it’s because the musicians want to evolve and move away from the traditional note writing method. Such key signature note writing, wheres this specific series focuses on “nut or night”

I think different tones make each piece unique, yet although many pieces are famous (like Beethoven’s symphonies), I think that past generation music is okay
Retrogrades actually help make the piece better

Different tones but cannot be repeated to give variety and make it not look like it is not repetitive. It is created to allow humanity to escape reality into their dreams. They want to move away from tonality because obssecion with moving on from bad things that happened in the past.

Chromatic scales are used in 12 tone series as prime and rétrogrades. Rétrogrades is the opposite of the main keys which is prime. 12 tone series in prime the notes increase in pitch and the keys are higher- A, A#, B, B#, C, C#. Serialism started after the world war 2, and they wanted to move away from tonality, because they want to move away from functional tonality and the negative experiences in the past so they wanted a new sound to express themselves.
Atonal is a ghost like sound without harmony.

# data[].attributes.body
Q. How does chromatic scales uses in 12-tone series?
A. The 12-tone series uses the chromatic scale because in the 12-tone scale it uses all 12 notes which is in the chromatic scale itself.

Q. Why music changes to Serialism in the 20th century?
A. Music changed to Serialism in the 20th century because they had an obsession with wanting to be to create something new. On top of that, they also wanted to move away from tonality where they had concepts which they needed to follow
This meant that they wanted to break away from the past and have a way to form their own future without thing about the war times.

Q. How does a piece composed on atonal?
A. A piece can be composed on atonal to express different themes. For example there are pieces that is composed in atonal that promotes the theme of darkness.

Q. How do numbers help in sight reading?
A. Numbers help in sight reading because that numbers are always associated with a specific tone or pitch within a scale. For example if it was in the Cm major scale, the number 1 would be C whereas the number 5 would be G.

# data[].attributes.body
12-tone series is used in prime and retrograde. Retrograde is basically backwards of prime as in prime the notes are going higher(A A# B B# C C#) but in retrograde is going lower(C# C B# B A A#). Because of what happened socially and they always want to create new things and they don’t want to be close to the normal world. Serialism happened because/after of World War II. The numbers help in sight reading by them memorising the number and knowing what note they have to play with that certain number. Atonal means like ghost sound basically no melody.

In this quarter, I have improved a lot in terms playing a variety of notes in a correct intonation. However, I also have many things I have to improve on such as articulation. Overall, I had a lot of fun and learned a lot during this quarter and hope to continue this journey with joy and laughter.

# data[].attributes.body
What can you improve on?

Overall, I hope I can improve on note-reading, dynamics, intonation, and show less fear when doing instrumental assessments.

# data[].attributes.body
In this quarter, I should improve on my intonation and my overall tone for my mi tone and fa tone. I discovered that my note reading skills have improved drastically which allowed me to less hesitate during my live performance. I have utilized slurring for this assessment. And finally, i was able ti identify the imitation and the sequence used in the piece.

# data[].attributes.body
*disc scratch* Hi my name is Justin and this is my reflection. This unit has been super rushed and stressful but music allowed me to atone and refresh myself through music.

This unit we learnt about Felix Mendelssohn and the Italian Symphony. Moreover we learnt about Imitation and Sequencing. This improved my sight and note reading. As I can identify which bar is imitating another and which bar is a sequence.

I had a great deal of fun this quarter/unit. However I still have areas of improvement. Such as my intonation and round sound while playing. These could kmoirve by practicing more during my free time, modifying the shape of my mouth and also my breathing.

# data[].attributes.body
My final performance for the assessment went better than I expected. I think my airspeed improved a lot and also reading the notes accurately improved as well. Collaboration with other team members too. The areas I need to improve in are the intonation and pitch of the notes.

# data[].attributes.body
What would you prove on?
Overall, I think that my playing of the brass instrument is considered to be quite average. However, every time I play the brass instrument, I panic, meaning that every time that I play, thereat least 3 notes that I will mess up. One way that I can improve is by breathing in air every two bars as it would be better for me to be able to play higher notes as it is a new breath of air.

# data[].attributes.body
This unit the topic was quite interesting as we got to know about Italian music and the musician Felix Mendelssohn. Today's learning was quite interesting as I develop my skills by now I know how to press the note when note is shown, and another skill I prove on is my breathing skill as know I can breathe out more air than last time. So. overall today and this unit is very interesting.

I believe that they are perfect the way they are. If someone likes a song, they listen to it more and thus the song earns revenue. Classical songs are less popular than pop and thus earns less. Although unfortunate, its fair: if you bought a book that does well and one that doesn't, do they earn the same revenue? No! It's simple economics.

# data[].attributes.body
I would say no because there are less people into classical music than pop. So paying them equally would be unjust for pop. If one book does well and one doesn't, do they get the same revenue? No, because that how economy works. While it is sad, there is simply nothing we can do about it.

Do you think being a classical musician it means poverty?

Personally I feel that this question that be answered in many different ways. For example if this question is ask in the context of the 21st century, then usually yes, it is mostly try that being a classical musician would mean poverty as nowadays people who works as a classical musician is unable to survive as only the bestof the best is allowed to qualified to be work in this area. However is this were in the context of the classical era, the.
Using Global Context Fairness and development

Which musician will earn more money? A classical musician like Mendelssohn or a pop singer let say Shakira? In what way can you use fairness and development to help equalize this vast differences in pay? Answer this in your padlet

# data[].attributes.body
Yes I think so because nowadays people are more into pop culture as they do it really enjoy listening to classical music as it goes really slow, where else pop music are more interesting for them. So being a classical musician means poor as pop artist make more money than them as people more into pop music so shakira will make more money.
So in conclusion, classical music is not the people's choice on music anymore as pop music is more people's type.

# data[].attributes.body
Do you think being a classical musician means poverty?

Well poverty means the lack and inability to meet basic needs such as food, shelter and shelter. I do not think being a classical musician makes you impoverished. It all depends on the era and trend during the set time. If a classical musician was present during the Romantic Period it renaissance period, he/she will be famous. As during that period of time, the trending genre of music is classical music. Which means people will listen to it more. As compared to the current society, where classical music are not in trend or as popular as it used to be. Nowadays the trending genre of music would be Hip-Hop, RnB and Pop. So being a classical musician during the 21st century, will not be as affluent.

Which musician will earn more? Mendelssohn or Shakira? In what way this difference in pay can be equalised through Fairness and Development?

I believe during the 21st century, musical artists like Shakira would earn more than Mendelssohn. To combat this difference would be implementing Copyrights. The copyrights for Mendelssohn has for been abolished as copyrights are only applicable for 100 years. Through implementing the copyrights, Mendelssohn and Shakira would both receive finance through the streams of their song

# data[].attributes.body
No, I do not think classical music means poverty. It is just a another form and way for composers to express themselves.

I think that pop singer, Shakira will make more money because current era is engrossed with the pop culture and style. Music reaching top charts can earn popularity and money at a high rate.

I think that the industry should classical music available as well and put them as a suggestion to give them a chance at listening from many people. They should also bring back classical culture as the complexity as well as simpicity impact the whole music industry until now.

In terms of Fairness and Development I think that the the copyright act serves Mendelssohn justice as he has to put in a lot of effort in making his own music that at the time is unique in comparison to other composers and musicians. However, personally I think that the copyright act that is place for approximately 200 years is both a good and bad thing as it made his work more well known especially in this day and age.

Today we learned about Felix Mendelssohn who is an influential German player during the roman time. He composed music that still people listen as some people use it for their wedding. He used to get paid since he makes music last time. Copyright, helped him in earning money as well and without copyright, there's no Mendelssohn

It is fair because copyright ensures that your work can't be copied and stays original

Mendelssohn was getting paid for all his cpmposed music with his copyright domain for 200 years. Since he composed his music, he is getting paid when his music is played whenever and wherever. By seeing this system, other muscians got some motivation to compose better music as they would also like to be paid. Therefore they can do what they are passionate in and also earn money at the same time (fairness and development)

Felix Mendelssohn is an influential German composed during the Romantic Period. He has great feats such as The Midsummers Night’s Dream and the Italian Symphony. The Midsummers Night’s Dream sounds unfamiliar, however upon hearing it ; it is one of the most commonly heard song. The song is heard globally as the beginning of a wedding ceremony. Linking the composition with our global context of ‘Fairness and Development’, it can be linked through Copyrights. The song was popularised as the composition was utilised for the wedding of Queen Victoria’s daughter. This started a trend of wedding couples utilising the composition as their wedding song. With Copyright, everytine the composition is used, Felix Mendelssohn will be compensated. This is ‘fair’ as Mendelssohn is the rightful composer of the song, so being compensated for the use of it is morally and ethically correct. The compensation for the use of the song helped ‘develop’ Mendelssohn as with the sun of money, Mendelssohn would be capable of composing more songs and also grew to one of the most influential Romance Period composer

# data[].attributes.body
It is fair because people can't copy his own work and call it theirs. This doesn't, however, give people the permission to develop it into a better music peice.

I think that Mendelssohn should not be paid due to copyright of his composition in Midsummer nights dream. This has changed modern music and composition as

Imitation and sequence in "First things First"

# data[].attributes.body
My imitation was on point and so were my notes. I did everything perfectly except for the tone: it was off. The pitch was lower than intended and I will need to work on that.

# data[].attributes.body
Imitation is basically the repitition of a melody. For example in the composition of ‘First Things First’ imitation was shown in three bars of Copper 1, Copper 2 and Copper 3. The play similarly as the number of notes and similar rhythm but with the use of different pitches. Sequences is basically is basically a single line of notes, such as Copper 3 itself.

# data[].attributes.body
The precense of sequence is true at copper 3 at the start middle and end. Mendelssohn used imitation in his composition in regards to fairness as the global context.

In the song "first things first", in copper 1, the first bar starts with Mi Fa So and the third bar also plays the same, in which imitation was present. We can say that imitation is a repetitiin if notes in a different bar. As this piece was made by Mandelssohn, it complately fits the global context fairness and development, since in even in his other pieces, he would allow the instruments to switch parts in playing the melody and base. Besides, there was a sequence from the fifth to sixth bars. Since the fith bar played G F G and the sixth played F E F, in which the beats were both 1,1,2. Moreover, the notes ere one tone down, if we compare the notes, which fifth bar was in a higher tone n 6th was lower

Imitation and sequential, in the piece that we played there's imitation as copper 1 and copper 2 has the same notes and the rhythm is kinda the same. Talking about sequential, in copper 3 it repeats the notes again but one part is higher and one part is abbot lower.

# data[].attributes.body
Between the different parts of the piece, imitation can be seen . For example in the Copper 1 and Copper 3 parts. Both sections are similar in terms that the same pattern and the length of the note being the same, the main difference between the two parts would be the notes used.
Sequence can also be seen in the first half of the piece where all the different parts had to repeat 2 bars twice.
This lesson can be related to the Global Context - Fairness and Development as Mendelssohn is fair to the different members of the orchestra because he gave the same parts to both the wood winds and the strings, but they have it at different timesq
