Hey Viewers!
Welcome back to my blog.
Today is a SLJ post! It's been a while.
If you don't know already, the Summer Learning Journey (SLJ) is a set of activities that you can complete over the summer holidays. Earn points by commenting and doing these activities and you might just earn some prizes!
Today's SLJ activity was about making a song on Song Maker. You can find the activity here on the SLJ blog.
I have lot's of experience with music, since I have been playing both the piano and trumpet for over 4 years each. I also love creating songs so this was a breeze for me.
My song is called Birdsong. The upper register is the bird singing, with it's chirps that come in at random positions. My middle area is where I have a constant rhythm of chords that go up and down tones throughout the piece. They show the movement and keep the song flowing. My lower register has a few specks of others sounds that may come out and any moment in the scene!
I have chosen a marimba and wood block, both percussion instruments that are light and portray the feeling of summer well.
At the end, I have added a nice chord to finish off.
Unfortunately, my first piece that I made was so long that I couldn't save it, so I made a shorter version that I was able to save properly.
Do you play instruments?
Would you want to learn an instrument?
I think that music is a universal language, do you agree?
Enjoy!
