... We were able to achieve this by exploring the use of instruments, the structure of music, and rhythm. ...
Firstly Dane, Steph and I concentrated on basketball trying to work out a rhythm. This proved difficult because it was hard to synchronise our timing and because we wanted to increase the tempo as we progressed the beat, it was hard to know how much we were increasing unless one of us counted the rhythm. So we had to count the rhythm and practise it repeatedly until it was accurate. ...
The next lesson we played around with rhythms using hockey sticks again choosing to increase the tempo at various points and adding more beats to the rhythm. ... We developed this so that the second and fourth person, ran down the stepping ladder at double the tempo of the first and third person to add an intricacy to the rhythm and to give the section contrast. ... Group B replied to this ‘challenge’ by using a different motif and repeating ‘exercise’ to a different rhythm. ...
However I thought our piece involved an effective balance of vocal and instrumentation. ... I think comical element brought some needed structure and helped us link the sections. ... The playground group focused on the use of vocal whilst the kitchen concentrated on the instrumentation aspect of music. ... It showed me you don’t have to be able to be especially musically talented to develop rhythms and there are so many ways music can be explored and created, if you just think a little more lateral and ‘out of the box’.
