Music Reflection-Week #10

• 14/04/10

Today I did a test on the history of music and also the notations and the major and minor scales of some of the notes. It turned that I miss a test last Friday and so I did not know much about today's test and I'm hoping for a mediocre score.There is a also a practical lesson where I played a few scales on the saxophone.

This Friday I saw a video clip of a song titled "When You Say Nothing at All". It has a slow tempo and beat. The female artist that sang this song is Alison Krauss. It is a type of popular music. The second song is by Katherine McPhee singing "Over The Rainbow". It is a very relaxing song and the singer performed it well enough, her voice is amazing and she did a few improvisations. The last video clip is a song composed by Adeline Koji with her own composition.
