• Group Instrumentation Analysis • Do this for a track of your choice as this week’s homework. We will discuss a random sample of these next week as a group.
• Intervals: • Generic Intervals http://www.musictheory.net/lessons/30 Specific Intervals http://www.musictheory.net/lessons/31
• It can be useful to associate intervals to where they occur in famous tunes. • Get a piano sound on logic and experiment for ten minutes, see if you can match each interval to where it occurs in a song/piece you know and make a note of it.
