Good evening all!
Listed below is the updated work for the week. Thank you for being flexible and going with the flow.
I would like for you to watch this video explaining what an ostinato is (GMPS Critical Analysis: MHSIC.6, MHSAC.6)
After watching, think about how many pieces of music you listen to that contain an ostinato. Here are some examples of ostinato found in music that I have listened to. Please listen to these and reach out to your section to discuss different pieces in which you hear an ostinato. Discuss in your section different pieces of music in which an ostinato is present. By Friday, please email me a document with ALL names listed of different pieces you found ostinatos. These pieces can be from movies, pop music, musical theater, cartoons, video games, etc. Please include YouTube links and make sure all videos sent are school appropriate. In this document, I would like for you to also write as a section how you think ostinatos can help you with sight reading and music retention. How can this help you find different patterns not only in sight reading, but also when memorizing a piece of music? (GMPS Critical Analysis: MHSIC.6, MHSAC.7)

Finally, please submit a video of you singing with an ostinato present via flip grid. I would love for you to get creative with what you choose your ostinato to be (think about what household items you can use for an ostinato…). Have fun with it! These videos will be visible to everyone, so please make sure you are acting appropriately in your video. If you do not have access to flipgrid, please email the video to me.

Hang in there everyone! Keep a positive attitude and know that this is all temporary. We are all doing the best we can given the current situation. If you need anything at all, feel free to reach out at any time.
