  1. Bell Ringer • Give an example of something that requires coordination to work.

  2. Chapter 4Section 2

  3. Metrical Patterns and Melodic Rhythms • Throughout the ages, mathematicians have sought out patterns of numbers. • This is because we humans are drawn to patterns and find their regularity or repetition comforting. • The same is true for musicians and the music they create or play.

  4. Mixing Meters • Composers sometimes mix meters to create an interesting rhythmic organization in their music. • Sometimes two music categories merge. • You can see this in the recordings of Russian classical composer Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov. • Many of his pieces, which employ mixed meters, draw on the traditional music of his Eastern European homeland.

  5. Recording • As you listen to “Procession of the Nobles,” clap on the accented beat and snap your fingers on the others. • Listen again to determine the order of meters in this music. • Which of the following correctly reflects the order? • A. duple/triple/duple C. triple/triple/duple • B. triple/duple/triple D. duple/duple/triple

  6. Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov

  7. Melodic Rhythm • Sometimes, the rhythm pattern of a compositions melody is so distinctive that you can “hear” the melody just by clapping it. • Let’s try to clap “Happy Birthday.” • Do not sing the song, just clap. • Notice that you can sense the melody without the additional element of pitch.

  8. Melodic Rhythm • Ludwig van Beethoven used a simple melodic rhythm for the opening section of the Second Movement of his Symphony No. 7 • Practice tapping the rhythm pattern in the opening section (Section A.)

  9. Chart of Symphony No.7

  10. Ludwig van Beethoven • He was one the world’s greatest composers. • Born in Bonn, Germany • 1770-1827 • Despite his families poverty, his father began teaching him music at age four. • His compositions are generally divided into 3 distinct style periods. • First, the early period composed when he first started realizing his loss of hearing. • Second, the middle period where he wrote the famous Fifth Symphony. • Third, when he was totally deaf. • He finished the Ninth Symphony and when the first concert was over, one of the performers had to tug on his sleeve to let him know that it was over.
