Lisa Bloomer: Module 3 activity-Part 1

I like this song because it is catchy and upbeat and it reminds me of being at Folk Festivals in the summer. I like the delayed drum beat and the fact that I can dance to it in my living room! I often listen to this song with my daughter and we always end up smiling and singing along.

Lisa Bloomer: Module 7 activity---Part 2

Beat: The beat of this song is steady. The drum highlights the beat after the introduction and keeps the beat strong throughout.

Tempo: The song starts off slow and builds up after the first few bars. It stays at this upbeat tempo throughout the rest of the song.

Meter: I am moderately confident that this song is in 4/4 time. When I tap out the beat, I can almost see the words and notes written on the page and I am consistently tapping out a beat of 4 beats per measure.

Rhythm: Once again, the rhythm is slow to start and then increases. It remains at this increased rhythm until the song ends.

Timbre: I hear a variety of instruments being played in this song including:
the tambourine, guitar, drums and a mandolin. I also hear hand clapping
stomping and of coarse, the vocals.

Harmony: This song is polyphonic and although it starts off in a
thoughtful, almost melancholic manner with vocals and guitar,
the additional instruments, handclaps, stomps and vocals help to bring about
the more joyful rhythms that extend through the rest of the song.
