Our Weekly Info: | The Buzzword for this week was DISSONANCE and it means: "disagreeable sounds...the auditory experience of sound that lacks musical quality; sound that is a disagreeable auditory experience; "modern music is just noise to me" Thank you to Brie (2), Omar (2), and Vance (2), for playing last week's Buzzword Game!! |
October has brought us a brand new Composer of the Month, Franz Liszt. You can see the facts that they learned about Mr. Liszt on display outside the music room or on the home page of this website :)
Check your child's go home folder for this month's composer fact sheet as well as the directions for how to become a "music detective" and have their work featured on the bulletin board outside the music classroom and on the Music Website!
