Goals of Music
Creating and Presenting: Creative work involves the practical application of skills and knowledge of theory as they relate to performance and composition. Students will perform, individually and in ensembles (e.g., using voice, band instruments, string instruments, guitar, keyboards, or other performance media).
Reflecting, Responding, and Analysing: Using the critical analysis (see below) process to analyse and reflect on different types of music enables students to develop a deeper understanding of themselves and the communities in which they live. Students also explore how music reflects and affects the societies in which it was created.
Foundations: Students also develop the vocabulary necessary for discussing and evaluating music. This foundational study helps them understand and appreciate different musical forms as well as ethical issues and musical etiquette.
