  2. The Elements of Music (cont.) There are seven (7) basic elements of music: Melody, Harmony, Rhythm, Tempo, Dynamics, Form, and Timbre. Today, we will be learning more about the elements.

  3. Learning Targets • I can define and give examples of Dynamics. • I can define and give examples of Tempo.

  4. Dynamics • Dynamics – The fullness of sound; volume. a) How loud or soft the music is b) Getting louder or softer in music * We use special symbols in music to describe dynamics.

  7. Examples of Dynamics in music • A Novice's Guide to Music- Dynamics

  8. Tempo • Tempo – The speed of the beat in music * We use special words and symbols to describe tempo in music.

  13. and… • Harmony • Form • Rhythm

  14. Activity • We will be listening to some musical examples. • On a sheet of paper, you will be describing the music we listen to in terms of the 7 elements we have discussed: melody, timbre, dynamics, tempo, rhythm, form, harmony.

  15. Here’s what you do… • Divide your paper into 7 blocks or sections for each example. • In each block, write one of the elements: Melody, Timbre, Dynamics, Tempo, etc. • For the listening examples, describe these elements in the appropriate box. You must attempt to use musical terms we have used in class.
