every time the guy screamed in that song, most of my class laughed.

Awesome music 1 test :D
Me and my friend always hope for a jazz song for Q4 (we are jazz freaks :p) - when that came up in Q4 a hi five was called for, but silly exam rules ruined the moment XD.
I was hoping for a duration question - got it, although I would of prefered better pieces to talk about duration, was alright though.
Different than previous years, wrote heaps. I'm happy

I thought about writing kazoo, but a little ounce of intuition told me that 12-century music would probably not be arranged with a kazoo part XD

I thought the string instrument was a lute but who knows??? I thought that was the hardest question on the test.

For the last one, once I realised I had to write and not just listen to the awesome song, I talked about pitch as well. I thought there was a lot talk to about in terms of the modulation from minor to major in the chorus and the wide range across the instrumentation.


yeah im of same mind. question one was dumb, and i considered lute and kazoo- came to same conclusion regarding kazoo- and then decided on a "nasal stringed instrument!" wtf.
and omg yes! i was jiving away to myself going NO! you must write now! hahahah. same with the mika one. singing to myself =D

The Music 1 Aural Exam was okay. I agree, question 1(a) was tricky, didn't know any of the instruments. But other than that it was fine. I picked dynamics for question 4.

Structure would have been the perfect concept to talk about. I wish I did that.

Can any1 remember the Artist 4 the last extract....i want to download it...lol. I know the song is called "I want to be like you" just can't remember the artist.
It was by Kenny Ball and the Jazzmen.

I know that because I own the DVD that extract was taken from.
