CLASSICAL SYMPHONY Music Reflects Culture

Listen to the Music Why do you think a song is from a certain time period?

Music Songs = good way of indicating trends and ways of thinking of a time period. Can you give me examples?

Music & Culture We learn a lot about the culture of a period in history by listening to the music of the period. Today we focus on the Classical Period. Check out Mozart and Hadyn! As you watch this segment, look for ways music composed during the periods reflects the culture shift after the Baroque Period. Remember to take notes!

ACTIVITY Divide into groups of 4. Using your notes, make 2 lists. One list is for the characteristics of Baroque music. Second list is for the characteristics of Classical music.

Classical Music Classical period took place during the Age of Enlightenment (Age of Reason). Composers sought to write pieces that made sense and that the listener could follow & understand. Main inspiration for art produced during this period was the architecture of ancient Greece. The typical Classical symphony was a great example of these influences with 4 movements: 1. the sonata allegro 2. a slow lyrical movement 3. a dance-like minuet 4. a brilliant rondo

ACTIVITY Brainstorm for 10 minutes Create a list of current cultural trends and ways of thinking in the U.S. today

Activity Discussion Predict how these cultural trends will predict how music (in any style) will be created in the next 5 years. Write song lyrics to demonstrate your understanding.

Exit Slip How was the Age of Enlightenment reflected in the study of science? How did American culture reflect the Age of Enlightenment during the Revolutionary War?
