 Elementary Music

MUSIC IS EVERYWHERE.  It is all around us.  Every culture in the world has music.

There are many different ways in which people use music.  Just think about the ways that

you have music in your life: you hear it on the radio, you hear it on TV.  Music is in the

background of your video games; you sing it in church and in school.  You might turn on

your favorite CD before you begin to clean your room.  We use it to play games, and

we use it to begin sports competitions.  Some people let music help them to feel relaxed

after a hard day of work.  Others use music to give them energy.  Music makes human

beings feel good.

     At this site, you will be able to explore different topics of music.  There are some

biographies of famous composers throughout history.  You may study a music diction-

ary to learn vocabulary which musicians use.  There is a section about rhythm, a very

important subject for musicians.  There is also a section about pitch.  The songs in this

pitch section are songs which you can learn to play on the recorder or the keyboard.

PLEASE ENJOY YOUR VISIT TO THE ELEMENTARY MUSIC WEBSITE!
