Choir Songs

I’ve added a page to the menu at the top as well as right here. I’ve linked in some of our choir music with their lyrics videos from YouTube. Enjoy!

ANZAC Silhouettes

Glorious Glockenspiels!

Love the looks of concentration on your faces, and the joy and satisfaction with your success!

Pitch – Major / Minor

If a song is played in a major key, it will sound happy. If it is played in a minor key, it will sound sad. Are the following songs major or minor? What connections or memories do they inspire?

Musical Patterns

We have been learning how pitch is made up of high notes, low notes, and notes in the middle. This week we will be learning to recognise patterns of pitch such as glissando, trills, and intervals (where you number the notes and see which number combinations sound best together).

Some classes will be revising how to use their singing voice to make interesting pitch patterns, and others will be learning about pitch contours, or mapping the ‘shape’ of the tune.

Subtraction with Trading / Regrouping

Practice your subtration skills with a game of lose a flat, or on Splash Math.

Stage 2

Stage 2 students are the most lovely musicians. Thank you Mrs Grovenor for bringing your class to their first music lesson on Pitch!

Music – Pitch

Pitch is how high or low/deep a sound is.

Listen to the following excerpts and determine if they are mostly high sounds, mostly low sounds, and how high or low. See if you notice any patterns of how the pitch of the notes change.

Try some match pitch or compare pitch. Then, listen to how the singers below combine the 7 standard notes to make songs. Do you hear any patterns of movement between notes, such as glissando, trill, steps, or intervals?
