I would paint somebody's dream.  I would paint a train.  I would paint who is brave.  I would paint something from Disney.  Dancing with music notes.  John Williams music.  It sounded like it was sad at the beginning.  I would draw a violin and piano.  I would draw something from Tom and Jerry.  ]]> 2016-03-18 16:06:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/101786087 What does this music inspire you to do? jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/101786111 Bear: Les Voyages 
Dance.  Nothing.  To play the piano.  It inspires me to be brave.  To play music and don't be shy.  To try new things.  ]]> 2016-03-18 16:06:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/101786111 What instruments do you hear/see in this Jazz Orchestra (aka "Big Band")?  jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/102744745 Basie: Jumpin at the Woodside

The guitar because it has a good sound.  The drums because it is mostly the part you can hear, the running part.  The piano because you move your fingers a lot.  The flute because you can make a lot of different sounds.  The bass because it is like the guitar.  I would play the guitar because my grandpa plays it.  the saxophone because it is my favorite instrument.  ]]> 2016-03-25 16:04:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/102744764 What instruments do you hear? jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/103661034 Sousa: Stars & Stripes Forever

The dynamics made it sleepy.  The dynamics made it sound like land and then the ocean.  The dynamics made it sound mysterious.  The dynamics made it sound like someone was getting married.  The dynamics sounded like a mansion from Scooby Doo.  The dynamics make the music sound more interesting.  ]]> 2016-04-14 19:40:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/105897724 How is a THEME in Music similar to a THEME in Literature?  jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/107109233 Paganini: Caprice No. 24 
It is like a chapter you read one part and then another part.  It sounded like Harry Potter.  It sounded like someone was in a storm.  It sounded like Sponge Bob because it had a high pitch.  It sounded like something important in the song or book.  It sounded like someone running out the door.  Irish movie we watched when they were dancing.  The person was crazy because he was so fast with his fingers.  ]]> 2016-04-21 19:56:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/107109233 How did the violinist make different sounds on the violin? jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/107109409 Paganini: Caprice No. 24 
He went slow and fast sounds.  I heard high pitched and low pitched.  It sounded like someone was running.  He hit the bow on the strings.  Instead of using the bow he used his fingers to pluck.  It sounded like Irish music.  It sounded like romance.  The violinist the different sounds with his fingers.  It sounded like a piano more than a violin.  ]]> 2016-04-21 19:57:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/107109409 How many VARIATIONS did you hear? jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/108509149 Rachmaninoff: Rhapsody 
I heard six times, twenty, eighteen, five, ten, twelve, seventeen, eight, five times.  ]]> 2016-04-29 16:05:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/108509149 Which version do you like better; Rachmaninoff's or Paganini's? Why (musical reasons)? jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/108509176 Rachmaninoff: Rhapsody 
I liked this one better because you can hear more instruments playing.  I like Paganini's solo better because it you can keep in touch with it.  I liked this one better because you can hear from soft to loud.  I like the Paganini because it made weird noises.  I liked this one better because you could hear it more clearly.  I liked this one better because there is more music than Paganini's.  I liked today's because it sounds exciting like they are running and at the end it sounded like they were lost.  ]]> 2016-04-29 16:05:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/108509176 How would the piece change if the guitar was replaced by a violin? jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/109640840 Rodrigo: Fantasia para un Gentilhombre
It would sound different because the guitar is higher than the violin.  It would be better with the violin because it is a higher voice than the guitar.  The violin it would be better with Guitar it sounded Mexican and with violin would sound classical.  It would sound different like a dream.  I like it this way because it sounds like nothing I ever heard before.  The guitar sounds better than violin because the violin makes it higher and guitar sounds lower and fancy.  The violin sounds calm and guitar you want to dance.  ]]> 2016-05-06 16:07:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/109640840 What was the form of the piece?  jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/109640868 Rodrigo: Fantasia para un Gentilhombre
ABABA we guess.  ]]> 2016-05-06 16:07:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/109640868 What musical techniques does Mozart use to keep the audience interested? jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/110801301 Mozart Piano Concerto No. 20 
It had a rhythm.  The technique he used was high and low to keep the audience interested.  It sounded like Sleeping Beauty.  It was slow and fast and full of different sounds.  It had low sounds  and high sounds mixed together.  How did he do that? So many notes on the piano.  It sounded like Tom and Jerry when they play music it went high when Tom was chasing Jerry and then it went low.  It reminds me of every time I go somewhere I hear it.  ]]> 2016-05-13 16:04:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/110801301 What natural landmark in the United States might you write a song about?  What would it sound like?   jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/111889155 Smetana: The Moldau 
Pyramids in Mexico with violin.  A turtle and I would use trumpets and they walk slower.  A beach and it would sound all soft.   Hawaii low sounds.  It sounded like dancing song.  ]]> 2016-05-20 16:07:58 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/111889155  What music techniques does Smetana use to make the music sound like a flowing river? jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/111889173 Smetana: The Moldau 
When the water was trickling.  The trumpets made it sound like water down the river.  When the piano goes high and low.  The violins made it sound like a waterfall.  The rhythm of it with the bell rings sounded like Bambi running around.  The tempo made it how fast it was going.  Pumping water and dumping it.  Music was light.  ]]> 2016-05-20 16:08:03 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/111889173 What instrument would you play in a marching band?  jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/113622387 Zimmer: The Pirates of the Caribbean. 
The trumpet because of the music.  I like the flute because it is fast and pirate music.  The drums because you wouldn't loose your breath.  I would play the trumpet because it is loud.  I would play the drums because I like the sound of it.  ]]> 2016-06-03 16:06:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/113622387 What musical qualities make the music exciting?  jflores10 https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/113622450 Zimmer: The Pirates of the Caribbean 
The shapes they make with the people.  The fireworks. The trumpets make it exciting.  The drums make it exciting.  ]]> 2016-06-03 16:07:26 UTC https://padlet.com/jflores10/Beswick4_3/wish/113622450
