Hello to all my students,
How are you? Do you remember the four pieces of music I played for you in class before the university festival? we'll do something more with them today!
First step
Right now, I would like you to go through your paragraphs about those pieces of music. Choose two (2) of those pieces you wrote. Open up a new Word file, and type them.
Second step
Now please listen to the first two pieces of music again - and this time to click on some videos of the first two artists whose pieces of music I played. I also have information links you can click on about these artists.
Would these video images, and reading about these musicians, change your ideas about what you wrote?
First - below is a link about the first piece of music you heard - Jacques Loussier and his version of J.S. Bach's "Siciliano in G Minor."
Click here (ここにクリックしてください) for a video clip of Jacques Loussier and this Bach piece I played for you in class.
If you want to know more about Jacques Loussier, click here (ここもクリックしてください）for a Wikipedia article (in Japanese) about him.
Next - here is the second piece of music you heard - Ronny Jordan and his song "After Hours."
Click here (ここにクリックしてください) for a video clip of Ronny Jordan playing the music I played for you in class.
If you want to know more about Ronny Jordan, click here also (ここもクリックしてください) for a Wikipedia article (in Japanese) about him.
What do you think of these musicians? Does seeing the artists' pictures or some image connected to the music, or reading about them on Wikipedia, change your own images of the music?
Hope you enjoyed listening to them again.
See you next time!
