1 Unit: Sound and Light Lesson 3: Music Essential Questions: 1.) What determines sound quality?

2 What determines sound quality? A set of notes that Music combine in patterns that are pleasing

3 The characteristics Sound quality that allows you to distinguish between instruments based on sound

4  Different instruments vibrate at different natural frequencies Sound waves travel along the strings of a guitar. Sound waves vibrate in a column of air. Sound waves vibrate in a drumhead.

5 Groups of Instruments GroupsExamplesPitch and Loudness StringedGuitar, violin, celloPitch- length of string Loudness- energy PercussionDrums, bells and xylophone Pitch- material and size Loudness- energy WindTrumpet, clarinet and flute Pitch- air column Loudness- more air
