Cultural Music - Popular Music

Musicians create music to express their emotions, feelings and ideas. To understand musicians' creations, elements of music and concepts are essential. We learn that there are different genres of popular music and pop music is one of them.

We worked as a group to prepare for our performance of popular music. We did some online research and decided on the piece by thinking of the skills of our group mates if they can play any musical instruments. We also tested out the timbre of the musical instruments and tried out with the appropriate rhythm, tempo and dynamics in mind.
