AOI 3

The lens for studying this area of inquiry focuses on the use of music to express dramatic intention, to serve and support movement or dance, or to support entertainment and commercial uses.

• Students may look at the dramatic or expressive reasons for which the music is written. They will study why and how music influences the audience and audience responses. They will also study why and how music serves and supports drama, movement or entertainment and the development of music for these purposes.

For this reason, students will look carefully at how music is created and performed, studying creating and performing conventions, techniques and devices used to communicate messages to achieve specific reactions in order to address a target audience or to achieve desired responses. They will evaluate the success of music in relation to its purpose and goals.
