baroque playlist

You will be choosing a total of 4 pieces per module for the playlists assignment. The specifics for each module are below.  For Baroque, you will do 4 total, and there are no requirements for individual pieces (other than that they are from the Baroque period).  For  each piece within a module submission, you will include the name, composer, and link to a performance along with writing a paragraph that includes why you chose that piece and why/how it fits the music characteristics of that time period.  Make sure to include terminology from the class and music characteristics of the period.  A reference list is required, but youtube links or other links to where you heard the music will not count as references. The characteristics for each time period can be found in the Background/Characteristics powerpoint and/or script within that time period's module.

3A. Playlist Project – This is a cumulative, comprehensive project where you create a playlist of songs that you would save if all music was going to be destroyed outside of what could fit into a 20 work playlist. For modules 2-6, you must choose a total of 4 pieces per module. The specifics for each module are below. For each piece within a module submission, you will include the name, composer, and link to a performance along with writing a paragraph that includes why you chose that piece and why/how it should be saved as a good representation of that period or type of music. Make sure to include terminology from the class and music characteristics of the period. A separate reference list (at end of paper) is required, but youtube links or other links where you heard the music will not count as references. References must be text-based sources.
