LET’S ROCK! WELCOME PURPOSE OUR ROCK STARS RUBRIC
WELCOME Rock ‘n’ roll is a style or genre of music that most of us recognize, whether from the U.S. or other countries. You will be learning About three specific “older” rock stars – Elvis Presley, The Rolling Stones group, and Madonna. You will learn about what makes each unique, and compare and contrast their sound to a rock star/group you listen to today. We learn the most about similarities and differences by comparing and contrasting styles. That will be your assignment.
PURPOSE OF OUR ROCK ‘N’ ROLL TRIP • Explore three Major Rock Stars from the 1960’s to the 1980’s • Compare and contrast each with a rock star you listen to today (1990’s to present) • Compare and contrast the style of the “old” rock star to that of the “new” rock star using the five elements of music • Connect how history influenced your rock stars
THE FIVE ELEMENTS OF MUSIC the song or tune of a composition; usually that part you hum in your head; remember, only compositions with words are called songs two or more pitches sounding simultaneously; the combination of two or more pitches at the same time; chords the pulse and meter in music; how sound in organized in time; how we count in music; how we feel the beat in music; in rock music, the beat is is felt on beats 2 and 4. the architecture of the music; how music is put together; the structure of the music; most rock music is in AABA form the layering of sounds in a composition; can be sparce to thick.

RHYTHM Please allow all sounds to play to the end Some music has the feel of a march Some music has the feel of a waltz, an “oom-pah-pah” sound Rock rhythm is similar to a march, but we feel the pulse on beats 2 and 4, instead of the first beat Back to Elements
