Week 2 Reflection

April 17-18


Theory Class (What are the functions of music in society?):
Music can be used as a media of self-expression and to show our deep emotions that is hard to reveal using words. Music can also be used as a form of entertainment, such as in concerts and shows in clubs and cafes. By listening to music, we can also help relax and empty our minds. Other uses can also include teaching kids and helping them by using songs to memorize. Today we had a small group brainstorm session to decide the topics we are going to do.

Instrument Class:
Today I tried playing the song Autumn Leaves, which I decide will be used for my final performance. Mr Sadrakh said that this song should be easy and is nice to listen to using the violin as the instrument, because it is not that long and the notes can flow perfectly using the bow.
