After choosing the specific music piece you want to discuss, NEXT take time to look up information online about the musical STYLE that the music represents. For example ‘ be bop’ or ‘ cool jazz’ or Baroque music,’ or ‘reggae, or ‘ Galliard from the Baroque Era,’ or ‘ classical Indian,’ or other styles — make sure you can NAME the musical style and that it is accurate.

Is it instrumental, or includes voice and lyrics? -9. What is the ‘ instrumentation’ (e.g. voice and guitar, string quartet, koto and shamisen, ) ) Describe how the music ‘unfolds’ (for example, ” first there is a solo entrance by the flute; then the orchestra builds from quiet solo flute, and the strings and horns enter, the first movement is quite, second is slow and louder, the third movement is very loud, it ends with a cymbal crash.) If it is folk music, also describe the sections and instruments, etc. -10.
