Use the most accurate terminology you have at your disposal. You will want to utilize the Jazz (and Musical) Terminology: Topical OverviewModule for reference to proper and accurate terminology. You should be as thorough as possible when describing the multiple musical events happening at any given time.
- Differentiate descriptions of sounds from section to section, especially larger forms such as a “chorus” (a full AABA section).
- Not all sections sound alike; you are not expected to use high-academic musical terminology; “laymans” terms will suffice for this assignment!
- You should fill in each box with some form of information requested. Although some larger sections (choruses) may have some of the same instrumental information (though their roles may change from section to section), comments regarding sound color, texture, etc. should be different from one cell to another. Information simply copied/pasted will not be considered.
- This is an opportunity for you, the listener to analyze and write about the sounds you are hearing based on what you have learned thus far in the course. The listening guides studied during the first 3-4 weeks should be a guide for what types of musical commentary content you could supply .
- Download the [recommended] PDF (or the Excel or Google Sheet) template; fill out the appropriate information and upload it to this assignment portal (the two right rows/columns). The time stamps have been filled in for you.b
