| Class 4 | Tuesday, September 02 |
For this session I decided to "double down" on homeworks, since you guys were all so good at your scales already. So we covered and assigned homeworks #4 (scales) and #5 (dotted rhythms). Assignment #3 was in process.
Homework #3: Piano Keys, Whole and Half Steps
Worksheet #3 asks you to ID a bunch of piano keys and calculate a few whole steps and half steps. You could consult pp. 15-22 in the theory textbook for reference.
This one is due on Friday, Sept 5.
Homework #4: Scales
Worksheet #4 asks you to create scales on a piano keyboard, "in the abstract" (just listing off the notes), and on a musical staff. Pages 27-28 in the theory textbook explain how to make your scales.
This assignment is due on Tuesday, Sept 9.
Worksheet #5: The Dot
Assignment #5 asks you to add counts to rhythms that include dotted notes. This is covered on pp. 24-25 in the textbook.
Homework #5 is ALSO due on Tues, Sept 9.
When They Bang This In The Club, You've Got To Get Up
...because of the dotted "heartbeat" rhythm, you see.
