ooooooohhhhhhhhhoooooohhhhhhhhh LOVING MS BLACKS BASIC THEORY NOTES!!!

pinkyc

me too I'm reading up on them atm,
and thinking to myself why didnt i come across them before =[

Pineapple123

If only I had seen 'em earlier....there might be some chance for me!

pinkyc

are you doing a music exam tomorrow too??

Pineapple123

Indeed I am!! Dreading it! Whoever thinks music is "an easy A"...oh how wrong are you! Ahh but I suppose we've half the exam done so it's not too bad...

pinkyc

i no lol the amount of ppl that have been saying to me sure your good at music youll be fine! but i can do the practical side NOT the theory side =[ unfortunately! haha! yeah exactly we have 50% done so im sure we've past that, so we just gotta turn up tomorrow and look pretty =]

Pineapple123

Yep! Fingers crossed! Well good luck tomorrow....hopefully a nice major melody in Cmajor will come up, a nice major harmony with a simple bass line, and a bitta Deane, and it shouldn't be too bad...but what's the likelihood of that?!

pinkyc

hahah stop dreaming, i dont think anyone would be so lucky! best of luck! =]

Me either, finally be rid of all the books and notes.

We had 3 teachers in the past two years so I'm not very hopeful about Music, just looking for a C

Thanks! I am Ms Black btw. I don't want to make it seem like I'm advertising myself on boards but I think my site is pretty helpful so I thought I'd throw ye all a link. Hopefully I'm not breaking any boards rules...

pinkyc

thanks =]!

They won't be used again for another three years. Maybe hang on to them and try then. I've been meaning to try to set up some kind of second hand book selling/buying link between my students and perhaps some randomers on the internet...

pinkyc

ms black your amaziing thanks for the link! while reading i kept thinking man your students are very lucky to have a teacher like you =]! damn i was hoping i'd get a bit of pocket money =[ i might hold on to them but then i dunno if its really worth it! do you have any last minute tips for tomorrow??

I don't predict cos I'd hate to say one thing and then have another some up. If I was held over the edge of a cliff and had to predict something I'd say minor harmony, upbeat melody (major or minor) and listening Q1 Seachanges.

For all listening questions Q1-4 and Q6 read the question carefully and ask yourself "what are they looking for?" - most common and silliest mistake made by vast majority every year.

Description Questions ("describe the music in this section") write categories in the margin and go through each until you find something you can hear and write down: instruments, accompaniment, texture, comp. techniques, instrumental techniques, dynamics etc.

Ok that's me done! I'm not saying anymore!

dididrama

I feel nervous about publishing that online already!

pinkyc

oh crap im sorry! thanks so much for that =] but if you feel more comfortable take it off i dont no how to sorry im kind of only learning how to use boards. sorry about you feeling nervous =[ but thanks for your great help i really do appreciate it all =]

That is the most terrifying prediction you could make.

Oh my god Ms Black!! Where have you been for the last year of my life?! I totally agree...your students are a lucky bunch! Oh if only you had been my teacher...you seem to know what you're talkin about...unlike two teachers I've had! Thanks for the tips!!

scherzo!

Quick question. Do the first inversions of chords have the same progressions as the non-first inversions of chords? I could prolly find out from my music teacher tomorrow during the break but if someone could answer now, it'd be fantastic.
