MUSIC Humanities: Art Appreciation

MUSIC It is literally defined as the art of organizing sound so as to elicit an aesthetic response in a listener. Music moves us,it makes us feel the tears but cannot trace the source, says Leticia Landen. Franz Liszt defines it as the language of the heart.

PROPERTIES OF MUSIC Pitch- highness or lowness of tone Duration- longness or shortness of tone Volume- loudness or softness of tone Timbre or tone color- individual quality of the musical sound

The human voice is the oldest and still the most popular medium of music. It is the most personal and direct medium as it comes from within the human body.

The Six Classes of Voices 1. Coloratura Soprano- highest female register 2. Soprano- high register female voice 3. Mezzo-soprano-medium-register female voice 4. Alto or Contralto-low-register female voice 5. Tenor-high-register male voice 6. Baritone- medium-register male voice 7. Bass- low-register male voice

ELEMENTS OF MUSIC Duration- refers to the continuance of time wherein a sound can be made to last for a longer or shorter period of time. Pitch- it means the location of tone in the musical scale in relation to high or low. Melody- it consists of a series of pitches and durations. It displays an overall balance between ascending and descending motion.

Harmony- it is simultaneous sounding of two or more tones like when a singer accompanies his melody with the guitar or a piano. Timbre- it enables the listener to distinguish one sound from another or one instrument from another. Dynamics- it refers to force or percussive effects: degrees of loud and soft. Forte means loud; piano means soft.

Texture- refers to the number of tones we are asked to comprehend simultaneously. Form- is also called structure which is as necessary to a work. Color- it is the result of the difference in timbre in the various instruments and voices... Style- it reflects the composer’s personal idiom which differentiates his work from that of others; he also reflects the style of the period in which he lives.
