MUSIC 1º ESO

CURSO 2020-21

Bienvenidos a la sección de Música del IES Acebuche.

Este curso va a ser muy diferente pero seguiremos intentando disfrutar de la música escuchando, tocando, creando y curioseando. Siempre, eso sí, separados y con mascarilla. Tendremos siempre que contar con motivación, ilusión y colaboración, ya que cada día es una oportunidad única para aprender y este virus no puede quitárnosla.

En este apartado aparecerán los materiales que usaremos en nuestras clases bilingües de música para que sirvan de apoyo a los alumnos en casa. Veremos vídeos, interpretaremos partituras, realizaremos distintos tipos de tareas siempre usando el inglés como herramienta de trabajo.


Para empezar os dejo un vídeo que todo el mundo debería ver que nos habla de los beneficios de la música desde el punto de vista científico. La música es un arte que no siempre se valora pero que a la vez que nos proporciona beneficios en nuestro estado de ánimo nos ayuda en el desarrollo de la capacidad intelectual. ¡Espero que os guste!.

Aprovecharemos estas fechas para conocer una de las más grandes obras clásicas: "Danza Macabra" del compositor francés Camille Saint-Saëns. Se estreno en París en 1875 y pone de manifiesto el gusto de los artistas del siglo XIX por los temas fantásticos, macabros, etc. Describe como la muerte en un cementerio a las 12 de la noche llama a los muertos para que salgan de sus tumbas y bailen un animado vals.

Now, a popular American Christmas song!!!!

But we can't forget our traditional Christmas songs "villancicos". 

UNIT 2: RYTHM: Duration, tempo and dynamic.

Activity : How to Hear the Pulse

When you listen to a popular song, you can often find the pulse in the lower instruments of the song. Let's practice.

1. Gangnam Style by PSY

In this popular tune with the snazzy dance moves it’s easy to hear the synthesized pulse on beats 1-2-3-4.

2. We are Never Ever Getting Back Together by Taylor Swift

In this popular tune, the bass drum plays a steady slow pulse through most of the song at 86 BPM.

Note: BPM = Beats Per Minute.

60 BPM means 60 beats in each minute, or 1 beat per second.

3. La, La, La by Shakira

As you listen, close your eyes and try to hear the constant beat of the song. When you are ready, tap your toe to the pulse that you feel or lightly clap your hands on every beat.

4. Hungarian Dances by Brahms.

Now, find the pulse in this beautiful classical masterpiece. Pay attention, the pulse changes!!!

THE SWAN LAKE

Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky was a famous Russian composer. He wrote the music for Swan Lake. One of the most beautiful parts of the ballet is the tune for Odette and the Swans. You will hear it a lot in the ballet. Listen for it at the end of Act 1 when Siegfried first sees.

THE COMPOSER'S CORNER

Johann Strauss and Johann Strauss Jr.

Johann Strauss father

Johann Strauss, Jr.

October 25, 1825 - June 03, 1899.

Born in Austria

 His father, also called Johann, was also a very famous composer, and is now known as Johann Strauss I (or Johann Strauss Sr) while his eldest son is called Johann Strauss II (or Johann Strauss Jr). Strauss became very famous for his waltzes. He was known as the “King of the Waltz”. His most famous one was called The Blue Danube).

Johann Strauss, Jr. was born in Vienna, where his father was an enormously famous musician. When the elder Strauss decided that Johann, Jr. should be a banker, his mother encouraged him to go into music.

When he was 19, Johann Strauss, Jr. started his own orchestra, and conducted his first public concert. Eventually, people began to realize that the younger Strauss was even better than his father.

Strauss toured internationally with his orchestra. And everywhere he went, he wrote new music dedicated to the places he visited. In addition to all the waltzes and marches he wrote, Johann Strauss, Jr. composed 16 operettas -- a very popular form of entertainment in his day.

Let's play two rythm games with the beautiful melodies of these great composers.
