NF5 make : Dont Bb or B# Just be natural

Sharp:placed before a note to indicate that it is to be raised by two semitones double sharp
Flat:a musical symbol or note whose pitch has been modified
Natural:a musical symbol written alongside a note to change its pitch

Summary

               In this assignment I had make a copy of the previous assignment which was NF4: The ABC's of music. I then had to adjust them by making two of the notes flat notes & two more notes sharp notes. The notes I turned into sharp notes I turned their change their letter by putting a number sign like this # in front of the letter. The letters I turned into flat notes I changed their letter by putting a lower case b in front of it. I then play the composition to see if it sounded right & if anything needed adjustments. Then I saved the composition & uploaded it to blogger. This is how I completed this assignment.  

NH4: The ABC's of music.

treble clef: a sign on a staff, indicating the position of G above middle C on the second line
bass chef: a sign on a staff, indicating the position of F below middle C on the fourth line
pitch: to determine or set the key of (a tune, an instrument, or the voice)
octave: the eighth tone of an ascending or descending diatonic scale, or a tone seven degrees above or below a given tone in such a scale

Summary

         In this assignment I had to organize the notes in alphabetical order. I used quarter notes, half notes & a few rest notes. I labeled them with letters according to high or low the notes were. If they were really high it was labeled as an A & if it was really low it was label either a E or D. If it was in between it was either G,F, B or C. After I labeled the notes, I played the composition all together to see how it sounded & if there was anything that needed to be adjusted. After I made a few minor changes, I uploaded it to blogger which is how I completed this assignment. 

             

NF3:Take a rest

rest
is an interval of silence in a piece of music

Summary

                In this assignment I had to create my own composition again but this time using quarter rest notes & the other notes we learned & used in the 2 assignments. I used 4 measures to put my notes into as usual. I put a couple of quarter notes, half notes & quarter rest notes all around the 4 measures until I thought their was enough. When I finished putting the notes around the measures I played the composition to see if it sounded right. I made a few minor adjustments to the notes in the composition & when I was fully pleased with it, I saved it.

              

NF2: When two become one

half note: a note having one half the duration of a whole note

Summary

             In this assignment I had to create my own composition again but this time using quarter notes & two half notes. This time I had to use four measures just like the last time. I put a couple of quarter notes & half notes on each measure. When I finished putting the notes around the measure I played the composition to see if it sounded right & if anything needed to be adjusted. Whatever I thought needed adjusting I fixed right away. This is how I finished this assignment. 

NF1: Quarter Note Madness

Staff 
- a set of five, equidistant, horizontal lines joined together by a brace
Grand staff
- this is theoretical combination of eleven lines that encompass the the bass clef and treble clef staves with the common line between them designating middle c
Time signature
- a symbol placed at the left side of the staff indicating the meter of the composition
Measure
- a bar (or measure) is a segment of time defined by a given number of beats of a given duration 

Summary

                In this assignment I had to create my own composition using only quarter notes. I had to make this composition using only four measures. I put about 6 quarter notes into each measure. When I finished setting up all the quarter notes around the measures I then listened to the whole thing all together. I changed up what I felt needed to be readjusted, saved it & then uploaded the recording up to blogger.

Summary 

                        In this assignment I had to make an advertisement that would help me convince others to listen to Nirvana. First I went to nytimes.com & looked for articles that talked about their opinions on Nirvana & their music, facts about Nirvana & a little background history on the band & what they did to impact music. The facts & opinions that I found off the articles that I liked the most were put into my script. After I put the facts & opinions on my script I put a different Nirvana song out of three to put to play in the background while I say the facts & opinions. Every Nirvana song played related to the sentences. I then exported the recording so they can then be put into one big recording. 

Audacity bleep project

Paragraph

                          This assignment was difficult to complete. I had to listen to the song over & over again to see where the curses were, label where the curses were & then bleep out the curses. It became difficult because sometimes I would label the curses at the wrong place & then the bleep recording wont bleep out the curse, it would just bleep out a different part of the song. To complete this assignment, I downloaded a bleep sound online. I then put it in the same window as the song "Wicked games" by The Weeknd & then I reduced the bleep sound to one second. I copied & pasted a whole bunch of the one second bleep sounds on to where the curses were so it could bleep out the curses. When I did this I then auto ducked the song so when the curse was about to come, the bleep sound would come on & the curse would silence itself so you would'nt be able to hear it. This is how I completed this assignment.
