Part 1: Reflect on Content (100 words minimum)
Write descriiptions about the mus

Part 1: Reflect on Content (100 words minimum)
Write descriiptions about the music itself and explain its characteristics. Please do not write about the period of history or art.
Write about the musical characteristics.
Baroque
• Define Baroque in your own words. Give one example from this week’s listening that helps demonstrate its meaning. Give a second example from this week’s listening that helps demonstrate its meaning.
Rococo
• Define Rococo in your own words. Give one example from this week’s listening that helps demonstrate its meaning. Give a second example from this week’s listening that helps demonstrate its meaning.
Baroque vs. Rococo styles
Describe the primary differences between Baroque and Rococo styles.
Be specific in your language and in the examples you give. The goal is both to demonstrate your own understanding of the terms, and to help expand others’
understanding of them. This is the shorter of the two sections; Part 2 represents your main submission.
2 Part 2: Outside Example (200 words minimum)
• Think of an example among the music you listen to that might explore and demonstrate one or more of these concepts. Post a video/link (e.g., YouTube) that applies one or more of your ideas from Part 1 to a song or performance you are familiar with and enjoy.
It does not have to be Western Art Music (i.e., what is sometimes loosely called
“classical”) —and ideally will not be, unless that is the music that you, personally, know and listen to.
• In a minimum of 200 words, write how the two (2) concepts in Part 1 are used in the
song or performance. Be specific and detailed in your descriiption of the concepts in the song. How do the concepts effect the sound of the song? Be specific including listing time stamps if necessary to support your points.
• Describe and explain
the Baroque characteristics of the song. Give two (2) examples of Baroque in the song and explain how and why it contributes to the sound of the song.
• Describe and explain
the Rococo characteristics of the song. Give two (2) examples of Rococo in the song and explain how and why it contributes to the sound of the song.
The idea is that you, as the foremost expert on the music you already listen to and enjoy, are introducing both the song and your thoughts about it
