This should be a song that you all know, and one that you can play. You need to work independently as a group, putting the whole song together. You will be blogging about your progress, so that we can see week to week what you are achieving.
If you choose this, you must
- Reflect on success and failure in the year so far, learning from the performances you have already completed
- Work in a planned and organsed way - today you must blog about your plan for the half term.
- Choose your song today
- You will be assessed on the quality of your playing, and the quality of your performance.
Song writing
Here, you are writing a song. You should
- Have the structure - Intro, Verse 1, Chorus 1, Verse 2, Chorus 2, bridge, Verse 3, Chorus 3, outro/ending
- Write your own lyrics, or choose from those below. If using these, adapt to fit the structure.
- Think about the instruments you are using, and select carefully.
- Listen to some tracks in the style you will write your song, to get ideas. How are the instruments used? Do they play all the time? What music/riff is repeated?
