Hello Music Appreciators!
This blog will be used to communicate, to listen to musical examples, and to work on special homework assignments and projects over the course of the semester.
To the right are three music videos that have very different styles. Watch each video, decide what style you think the music is, and provide two reasons why you think it falls into that style category. When referring to each video, do not call them "video 1", but call them by the title of the song, or by the musician's/band's name.
If you are unable to view the videos to the right, you may click on the hyperlinks below:
