This half term you have been listening to different pieces of music from the Baroque Era, and developing your skills in using Cubase by transcribing a famous piece by Pachelbel - his Canon.
On the right is a version of the Canon which uses the original instruments: The GROUND BASS is played by the Harpsichord (listen out for the 'twangy' sound!) and the cello. There are 3 violins playing the melody lines. How is this version different to ones we've listened to so far? Think about the elements of music: dynamics, tempo in particular. |
