Music

Learning intention: I am learning to use correct terminology when referring to Dynamics in music.

Success Criteria: I am successful at placing the pictures of various objects in our environment in a table under p for piano and f for forte.

Activity

Today we are going to learn about Dynamics in Music. Musical Dynamics indicates the loudness of the music. We use the Italian

terms piano and forte. They are usually abbreviated to p and f. We can also add the word mezzo (m).

forte refers to loud

piano refers to soft.

A piece of music can change throughout.

I would like you to close your eyes and listen to the sounds around you and see if you can detect loud sounds and soft sounds. You

could do the same thing outside. Can you hear a truck going past or a bird chirping?

Next put on a couple of your favourite songs and just listen to see if the music goes from soft to loud or loud to soft. Many pieces

written for orchestras change from soft to loud and back again and it would be great if you could listen to one of these.

On the next page are pictures of different things from our environment. Think about the noise they make and decide if it is a loud

sound or a soft sound. Cut them out and paste them onto the following sheet under the correct headings. Remember forte means

loud and piano means soft.
