Music Around Us - Music in Dances

We learn music in dances focusing on tango, cha cha and waltz. We learn that there are specific beats in each dance form, and the tempo and dynamics of the dances tell people how the dance is.

We used Song Maker from Chrome Music Lab to create either a waltz or a cha cha. While creating, we have to bear in mind of the beats, tempo and dynamics which are unique to the dance. You can copy and paste the website address to listen to our composed music.

Cultural Music - Indian Music

Musicians express their feelings and ideas through their music pieces with the musical elements and concepts in mind. The instruments played in a particular culture are unique and evoke different feelings and emotions. We learn that through music, cultural heritage can be reserved.


To show that we can express ourselves in different emotions singing the same song, we changed the tempo and dynamics when we sang Karadi Mama so that different feeling would be expressed.
