Research books-
Dorothy Dingle-
I have learned a lot from the Dorothy dingle book it taught a lot about pitch such as: a pitch is technically a note that describes how high or low a sound is.The pitch can be position on the lines of the stave or written in every space above and bellow the stave as well as in the spaces between the lines.Staves have a treble clef and a bass clef, treble clef is used for instruments that plays on a single stave such as violin, flute, oboe, clarinet, trumpet, french horn.A bass clef is used for interments that cal play on a single stave such as cello, double bass, trombone, tuba and bassoon.
Scale and key signatures were also another unit that I had the chance to learn from this book, it taught me different types of scales that contains the same pattern of tones and semitones.There different 4 types of scales such as: major, harmonic minor, melodic minor and chromatic scale.I also learned that one octave of a major, harmonic minor and melodic minor scale has 8 notes altogether, include the 2 notes an octave apart.Every scale has its own key and each of these major keys is shared by a minor key, major and minor share a key signature and most of the scale notes are the same, however to give minor scales their individual sound some of the notes need to be altered by writing an accidental before them.
There are other important units that I learned such as composing a melody.The book gives you tips on how to compose a melody.The first tip is a melody needs to have a cadence point in the middle and another at the end if you want the melody to be good.The cadence in the middle needs to be like a comma in the middle of the sentence, which ends on a dominant harmony.The cadence at the end needs to give a ending feeling so a like a full stop at the end of the sentence.
I learned that voices in score such as choirs needs to be divided into four parts: soprano, alto, tenor and bass.There are two ways of writing music for four voices. It can be written on either two of four staves.The two staves on a score would be the soprano and alto voices written in the treble clef and the tenor and bass voices in the bass clef.The four staves in scores would be the soprano in the treble clef, the alto voice is also written in the treble clef, the tenor voice is written in the treble clef an octave higher than it will be sung and the bass voice in the bass clef.
The AB guide to music theory part 1 and 2-
The AB guide is an amazing theory book written by Eric taylor.The book taught me the basic of rhythm and tempo that includes time values; the sign most often used for a single beat is a crotchet that are quarter notes but if the rhythm would only be given in half notes then the sign would turn out to be a minim.One minim last as long as two crotchets.If the rhythm were added by two more notes then the sign shown would be a quaver. Two crotchets are as long as four quavers.A semibreve a whole note that is half as long as a quaver. It also taught me how rests work in music notation.A silence lasting as long as a crotchet is indicated by a crotchet rest,the rest for a quaver is a quaver rest and semiquaver is semiquaver rest.The minim and semibreve rests are attached to one of the lines of the stave.The minim rest sits on top of the line (usually the third line) while the semibreve rest hangs below a line (usually the fourth line.) The breve rest completely fills the space between the two lines.An entirely silent bar in 4/2 is shown by a breve rest but an entirely silent bar in 4/4 and in other time signatures is shown by a semibreve rest.it taught me the meaning of triplets, simple and compound time, a triplet is a group of three equal notes performed in the time normally taken by two notes of the same kind. In a passage of continuous triplets the 3's are often omitted once the pattern has been established but composers occasionally do not include the 3 at all.The difference between the simple and compound time is the length of the sounds and the silence for example: the quavers are beamed into two for simple timing while the corresponding are beamed into three.The AB guide to music theory part 2 taught my the subject of non-harmony notes, passing notes and other materials that comes with it.Passing notes are used to provide link between two notes in a melodic line.The simplest kind is a single passing note between two harmony notes which are a third apart.The two harmony notes may belong to the same note or to different positions of the same note, the passing note is dissonant with at least one note in a chore to which is attached to.Harmony notes may be linked by a chromatic passing note, two or more passing notes may be used in succeeding to provide the link between two harmony notes.Passing notes are also found not only the melody but also in the bass.Most commonly passing notes are found in relatively weak positions rhythmically.Passing notes always moves from a note to the other.Auxiliary notes are notes that follows a harmony note by step, either above or below, but then returns to the same harmony note.Anticipations is the sound of the note before the chord.Anticipations are generally a step away for the previous harmony note.They are very common at cadences.Changing notes will group a variety of non-harmony notes involving movement by and by leap.If only one non-harmony note is not used the step may come after the first harmony note or before the second, two stepwise movements can also be used together to produce patterns congaing two non-harmony notes.The other subject that got me very interested is the chromatic chords and its different subjects.A chromatic chord is a chord including at least one note which does not belong to the diatonic scale of the key.Chromatic chords can be used in the process of modulation or they may be used without any hint of modulation.Borrowed chords are used chords that are borrowed from minor or major keys with the same key-note.It is much rarer for music in minor keys to use chords which have to be regarded as borrowing from major key because minor keys already provide many alternatives, they arise out of the fact that the 6th and the 7th degrees are variable in the harmonic and melodic form of the minor scale.
Study guide and revision guide-
The study guide and revision guide gives out a lot of amazing information about different music areas around the world.Subjects I've learned:Romantic song; The romantic period lasted in the early 19th century to the start of the 20th century.The romantic period wasn't simply about love, although a lot of composers did use this theme in their music.Romantic composers strove to add a wide range of emotions and expressions into their music, aside from love and desire:feeling of despair, hope, anger, anxiety and a lot more.Romantic composers also aimed to tell stories with their instrumental music by portraying different people, places and events.Song writing allowed composers to reflect and indulge in the huge range of emotions found in poetry.There are two types of songs that emerged in the Romantic period: the strophic song and the through composed song.
Pop ballad;the earliest form of the popular ballad was a folk song with a simple story.These folk songs were passed down orally, from generations during the middle ages.In the 19th century ballad was being used for any sentimental popular song.Since then the use of the term has not changed, today pop ballads are defined as slow songs that usually have sentimental or romantic lyrics.The classical concerto; The classical period lasted from about 1750 to 1820.Composers emphasised simplify and clarity in their music during this time.A classical concerto is a piece of music for an instrumental soloist and orchestra.The concerto usually consists of three movements such as fast, slow, fast.In these concertos the soloist virtuosity and flair are combined with the orchestra range of textures,timbres and dynamics, creating different contrasts of sounds. Classical concertos used to be performed in grand concert halls across the whole Europe.In the concerto the conductor usually follows the soloist and the orchestra follows the conductor.This allows the soloist to interpret the music as they wish, without having to constantly worry about fitting in the orchestra.However, the soloist and the conductor have to agree on that interpretation before the rehearsals take place.
Jazz;Jazz music encompasses a huge variety of styles and ensembles.However there are certain elements that bind in many of these different sales and groups together, the most important is the improvisation.Jazz performers in an ensemble will often take turns to improvise during the each piece.Sometimes the improvisation will only be a short break that is a few bars in length, before someone else takes over or the main melody returns but other times a whole piece can be largely improvised.Jazz musicians have to listen carefully and respond to each other when they perform.They must understand each other's approach to performing and improvising.They also have to understand the style of the music, as this often has particular conventions that should be followed.Jazz musicians sometimes perform from lead sheets.All members of the ensemble know what role their instrument takes and create a part from this lead sheet accordingly.
Indian classical music;Indian classical music has a history that can be traced back over 3000 years.It has been since developed into a strong traditions that is still prominent today, the competition from folk and popular music.Indian classical music usually has: a single melody line, a rhythmic pattern and a drone.A raga is a scale of notes used to create a melody.There are over 200 different ragas, some of which are associated with a particular time of day or season.Ragas have been memorised and handed down from one generation to another as part of an oral tradition.A tala is a cycle of beats that forms the rhythmic basis of a piece of music.There are hundreds of different tala patterns in Indian classical music.Instruments:Sitar-a plucked string instruments with over 20 strings, although only four of them are used to play the melody and another two or three used to play a drone.Tanpura-an instrument similar to the sitar but with only four strings, usually tuned to two different notes of the raga.The strings are plucked repeatedly to maintain the drone.Tabla- a pair of small, single headed drums played with the fingers and the palm of the hand.
Gamelan;Gamelan music comes from islands such as Bali and Java in Indonesia.The word 'gamelan' refers to the collections of instruments used, most of which are tuned percussion instrument, these includes:Gongs of various shapes and sizes.Some are suspended while others are bowl shaped and sit in frames.Each Gong is pitched to a different note of a scale.Metallophones, which are like xylophones with metal keys.In Balinese gamelan the metallophones are often tuned in pairs with one slightly higher or lower than the other, creating slight clashes in tuning.Drums, which are barrel-shaped and double-headed.Both ends of the drums are struck, usually with the hands although sometimes with beaters.
Dance music was another subject included in this book.
Waltz:developed out of Austrian and German folk dances at the end of the 18th century.In particular, it originated from a popular folk dance in 3/4 called the Landler.This was a lively dance for couples, involving stamping and hopping as partners turned around each other.These folk dances were combined together and take into the ballroom, where they were transformed into the Viennese waltz.The important musical features of the viennese waltz are: 3/4 time.A time signature with three bets in a bar fits the waltz three-step sequence the best.This means that the first step of the sequence always falls on the first beat of each bar.An accent of the first beat of the bar.This means that the mean, driving step of the waltz is always given emphasis in the music.An um-cha-cha pattern.The 'um' is often a single bass note on the first beat of the beat of the bar and the 'cha's' are the chords that follow on the beats 2 and 3.
Tango;originated in Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, in the late 19th century.The dance grew out of a number influences- it was the product of a large, cosmopolitan city that people had migrated from all over the world.African influences were combined with dances from Europe and Cuba to create the new style, which originated in the poorer slums on the outskirts of Buenos Aires.Characteristic features of the tango include: 2/4 or 4/4 time,with four beats in a bar.Dotted rhythms and syncopation.Two rhythms typically found in tango music are: A strongly accent rhythm with short,sharp notes.This reflects the swift,sharp movements found in the dance itself.A minor key and often quite jazzy-sounding harmony.A moderate tempo of around 120 beats per minute.Regular phrase lengths.An instrumental line-up of bandoneon, violin, piano and bass.The bandoneon, originally key to the tango sound, is similar to an accordion.This combination of instruments formed the classical tango orchestra.Tango music is now played on many different instruments, but there is often a strong presence of string instruments.
American line dance;line dance in America is thought to have developed out of the contra dance,which was a dance popular in New England during the 19th century.American line dancing is most commonly associated with country and western music.Although some country and western music is purely instrumental much of its sung.Many country and western songs can be described as ballads-the emphasis is always on the lyrics and the story that they tell.As a result, the melody, rhythm and harmony are usually very simple.Other common features of country and western music include:A time signature of 4/4 with four crotchet beats in a bar.The first and third beats are accented.A single melody line,which might be harmonised in the chorus by backing singers.Very simple harmony, often based on repetition of only two or three chords in a major key.A steady crotchet movement in the bass line, which typically oscillates between tonic and dominant notes.
Hans Zimmer-
Hans Zimmer is a film composer and a producer, he also is a pianist and a guitarist.He has composed over 150 films which he received four grammy awards,three classical BRIT awards, two golden globes and an academy reward.Hans Zimmer work is notable through integrating electronic sounds with the orchestra.Hans Zimmer created a big film music company, his company Remote control productions is one of the big players in Hollywood, a couple of musicians are working in three buildings full of high-tech studios.
Soundtracks-
Hans Zimmer he usually composes 2 hours of music in 6 or 12 weeks, he said that it usually takes him 6 weeks to write a small melody.For all the the soundtracks he composes they bring a whole dynamic of emotions into the pictures for example his mystical soundtrack for Gladiator gave the movie a new level of meaning.Desperations and aspirations of the main character were added to the action.The director always have an idea of on how the soundtrack should be like but hans always write something that director couldn't even imagine.The black hawk down, the music reverses the meaning of the images for example: when the soldier returns to their camp the music shows the soldiers inner feelings ; trauma and inanition.Hans says that it is not easy to work as a composer because it is long and a torture for him.In the begging theres an always an empty paper and a feeling of anxiety when he does not come up with any ideas.He phrases that composing is a strange thing, its more of a discovery, ' I know that 10,000 are playing the same notes but they don't recognise that this is a melody, thats the magic of music.'

Dorothy Dingle-
I have learned a lot from the Dorothy dingle book it taught a lot about pitch such as: a pitch is technically a note that describes how high or low a sound is.The pitch can be position on the lines of the stave or written in every space above and bellow the stave as well as in the spaces between the lines.Staves have a treble clef and a bass clef, treble clef is used for instruments that plays on a single stave such as violin, flute, oboe, clarinet, trumpet, french horn.A bass clef is used for interments that cal play on a single stave such as cello, double bass, trombone, tuba and bassoon.
Scale and key signatures were also another unit that I had the chance to learn from this book, it taught me different types of scales that contains the same pattern of tones and semitones.There different 4 types of scales such as: major, harmonic minor, melodic minor and chromatic scale.I also learned that one octave of a major, harmonic minor and melodic minor scale has 8 notes altogether, include the 2 notes an octave apart.Every scale has its own key and each of these major keys is shared by a minor key, major and minor share a key signature and most of the scale notes are the same, however to give minor scales their individual sound some of the notes need to be altered by writing an accidental before them.

I learned that voices in score such as choirs needs to be divided into four parts: soprano, alto, tenor and bass.There are two ways of writing music for four voices. It can be written on either two of four staves.The two staves on a score would be the soprano and alto voices written in the treble clef and the tenor and bass voices in the bass clef.The four staves in scores would be the soprano in the treble clef, the alto voice is also written in the treble clef, the tenor voice is written in the treble clef an octave higher than it will be sung and the bass voice in the bass clef.

The breve rest completely fills the space between the two lines.An entirely silent bar in 4/2 is shown by a breve rest but an entirely silent bar in 4/4 and in other time signatures is shown by a semibreve rest.it taught me the meaning of triplets, simple and compound time, a triplet is a group of three equal notes performed in the time normally taken by two notes of the same kind. In a passage of continuous triplets the 3's are often omitted once the pattern has been established but composers occasionally do not include the 3 at all.The difference between the simple and compound time is the length of the sounds and the silence for example: the quavers are beamed into two for simple timing while the corresponding are beamed into three.The AB guide to music theory part 2 taught my the subject of non-harmony notes, passing notes and other materials that comes with it.Passing notes are used to provide link between two notes in a melodic line.The simplest kind is a single passing note between two harmony notes which are a third apart.The two harmony notes may belong to the same note or to different positions of the same note, the passing note is dissonant with at least one note in a chore to which is attached to.Harmony notes may be linked by a chromatic passing note, two or more passing notes may be used in succeeding to provide the link between two harmony notes.Passing notes are also found not only the melody but also in the bass.Most commonly passing notes are found in relatively weak positions rhythmically.Passing notes always moves from a note to the other.Auxiliary notes are notes that follows a harmony note by step, either above or below, but then returns to the same harmony note.Anticipations is the sound of the note before the chord.Anticipations are generally a step away for the previous harmony note.They are very common at cadences.Changing notes will group a variety of non-harmony notes involving movement by and by leap.If only one non-harmony note is not used the step may come after the first harmony note or before the second, two stepwise movements can also be used together to produce patterns congaing two non-harmony notes.The other subject that got me very interested is the chromatic chords and its different subjects.A chromatic chord is a chord including at least one note which does not belong to the diatonic scale of the key.Chromatic chords can be used in the process of modulation or they may be used without any hint of modulation.Borrowed chords are used chords that are borrowed from minor or major keys with the same key-note.It is much rarer for music in minor keys to use chords which have to be regarded as borrowing from major key because minor keys already provide many alternatives, they arise out of the fact that the 6th and the 7th degrees are variable in the harmonic and melodic form of the minor scale.

Analysis of his soundtracks-
1st-Pirates of the Caribbean- He's a pirate.
2nd-The dark knight-Why so serious?
|
This track is known as the main theme for the film.It is featured at the end of each film and it is the first theme heard as the end credits roll.The mood for this soundtrack is lively and upbeat which adds comedy and action of the film.The music articulation used is staccato that features dynamics and melody.The instrumentation percussion gives the action then brass and percussion comes in.Time signature 6/8.The texture used is Vivanc, presto and forte.
This track outlines every aspect of hans Zimmer individuality as a film composer and his unique use of technology.The tense quiet opening that is played with 2 notes by a cello and an electric guitar is used as a leading introduction to the whole soundtrack.The sound captures the audience due to its pitchy timbre that gradually escalates.

Hans Zimmer Inspiration-
For each score Hans composes He finds inspiration by the characters, actors, the story and the place.
Man of steel score he explained that he was inspired by middle America, that Christopher Nolan provided some input and that the score features an A-list lines of celebrities.Speaking to CNN, Hans explained his trepidation at taking the job "Look, that was daunting. Seriously. He’s the greatest film composer out there, without a doubt, and it happens to be one of his iconic pieces of music, so I spent three months just procrastinating and not even getting a start on the thing, because I was so intimidated: ‘Oh my God, I’m following in John Williams’ footsteps."
The dark knight Hans Zimmer revealed that his music influences were Verdi, Alison Goldfrapp and electronica even thought the genres might seem an eclectic assortment the parts that Hans was listening the most were the production of synth based act.
