2S - Music: Dynamics and Timbre

Lesson: Music

In this week's music lesson, we used our untuned percussion instruments to learn about 'dynamics' and 'timbre'. The children began to understand that all instruments have their own unique timbre (quality of their musical note) and that composers use this, together with dynamics (volume) to express different emotions in their music.

We used our instruments to play along to 'Once a man fell in a well', the song we learned last lesson.
