Listening Journal 2
Directions: You will complete this journal entry under the Listening Journal Tab in Blackboard. Please write three to four sentences critiquing each of the following musical selections. Describe the instruments that are used, what textures or techniques are used, and how this type of music represents the culture it is from. Try to use many new, descriptive adjectives (i.e. coarse, rough, melodious, fluid, brilliant) instead of using words like fast, loud, etc. Generic answers will not be awarded credit.
