A podcast produced in class. Secular music in Middle Ages
( With Cantiga 119 by Alfonso X the Wise)








Santa Maria Strela do dia ( 2º B)- Soloiste recorder played by Mª José de Vega. 





The conference was really interesting and exciting. It was organised by Nines ( Literature teacher in 2º A).
Angel sang as soloist a part of Santa Maria Strela do dia and immediately after al the group sang a "romance" composed by Marcos and Pedro: 

Soy el hacedor de versos
vean a este juglar actuar
con cantares al momento
diversión les voy a brindar.
Un perro iniciará el baile
y fuego voy a lanzar
luego contaremos un cuento.
La función va a comenzar. 

Y mi nombre es don Rodrigo,
Rodrigo, el mejor juglar
interpretando mis cantigas
voy de ciudad en ciudad. 
Algunos nobles me llaman
para poemas recitar
y tocar zanfoñas y gaitas.
Mi laúd os voy a mostrar. 

We sang and played  "Hallelujah", composed by Leonard Cohen and performed by Rufus Wainright. 

 And finally we watched some videos to finish this topic: 
Video no1: Leonard Cohen during Príncipe de Asturias awards. 


Video no2: 

Tras el concierto de primavera de la orquesta María Deraismes hicimos una evaluación en español. 


Finally, some students belonging to 2º C participated in a performance in Segura Covarsí school with the choir. 


Third trimester: 

We finished the unit related to Renaissance period and started to study Baroque period with different interesting activities: 

Some useful vídeos: 
Clase con Pablo sobre el Renacimiento









La música en el Quijote. 





Baroque period: 






Baroque hits: 

5: Pachelbel´s canon
Bajo continuo, bajo ostinato


Do you know that one of the most beautiful songs composed by Maroon 5 has the first harmonic ostinato: 

4. Te Deum, by Charpentier
 


3: Tocatta and fugue in D minor by Bach

This piece was the original composition arranged by Tony Britten to compose Uefa Champions League anthem: 


1. The spring, belonging to The four seasons by Antonio Vivaldi. 
We filled in class a worksheet about The Four seasons: 


What´s the opera? 

The first opera was Orfeo, by Claudio Monteverdi


We watched a video about one of the most famous castrati, Farinelli, singers who could sing as a woman with the lungs of a man, so they were chant´s  virtuosi. 



We worked about Ombra mai fu, taking photos about trees to celebrate World Enviroment´s day. 

Ombra mai fu ( A beautiful aria belonging to "Serse", by Haendel)


Our videos: 



Finally we read about different important Baroque musicians in our music book and specially, Bach. 

Studying Bach: 

Meeting Bach ( a dialogue between Leonor and Bach)
María Chaves and Ángel Corchero performed this script  in our Recording Studio thanks to Alfonso Rodríguez. Link in soundcloud
( This dialogue was written by Nieves Tejado , a music teacher in a high school in Cáceres). Congratulations, my students, your performance was great!. 









Who is Bach? Sheila nos lo cuenta en su Badinerie de la Suite número 2. 





No os perdáis el vídeo de Jaime Altozano sobre el órgano, el rey de los instrumentos en el Barroco y en la historia de la música. 


Páginas y podcast para continuar aprendiendo Historia de la Música de una manera amena: 





Some photos to say Thank you and Goodbye to a special year: 






Evaluación del alumnado de la asignatura :
Se pasó un test para hacer una autoevaluación y comentarios de la marcha de la asignatura.
Una gran parte del alumnado coincide en que les ha encantado tocar el ukelele, cantar,  las clases de danza, percusión corporal y las actividades en grupo que se han realizado. 
Aún así se ha echado de menos más actividades en grupo, trabajar mejor y con más antelación los vídeos que se han puesto en clase para sacarles más jugo. 
En los resultados académicos se puede apreciar que se premió la buena participación en eventos musicales y la realización de trabajos voluntarios propuestos en classroom, es decir, un esfuerzo extra así como el estudio regular hecho con atención e interés. 

Mi propuesta de mejora para el curso próximo es no abandonar las tareas diarias ( como sucedió este curso) sino trabajar desde el principio centrada en la clase pero sin dejar de profundizar cada 15 días en algún tema que sea oportuno fijar para ir creando hábito de trabajo que redunde en mejorar la calificación en la asignatura. 

Os deseo un magnífico verano. 
Mª José de Vega Elías.

Third trimester: 

We started to prepare Musiqueando: 







We studied some contents related to musical language: 
At the end of the year, we filled a test about all we studied in class

https://forms.gle/dfPEKvk4nSjrDUtv9



4 chords songs:

A good example: Demons

Rehearse at home this song: "Sing" by Gary Barlow and Andrew Lloyd Weber. 

Sing with this karaoke





-Learn the difference between a piece of music and a song: 

We must name in a correct way the music we usually listen. 
A very famous piece of music: 


Our music for "Graduaciones":
Memories, by Maroon 5 ( it has the same harmonic ostinato that Pachelbel´s canon) 
It´s a song. 


During the last weeks, with some groups we celebrated MUSIQUEANDO. 


Adrián for president



We sang "Irregular verbs rap" and composed new lyrics in order to learn more irregular verbs: 
We celebrated concerts during the break in "Biblioteca al aire libre"
We had some lessons outdoor: 



We rehearsed in our garden for "Graduaciones". 


And finally, Mª José collected journals to write a mark to evaluate "competencias adquiridas" and everybody tuned their ukeleles with a digital tuner and  played ukeleles in class. 




Evaluación del alumnado de la asignatura :

Una gran parte del alumnado coincide en que les ha encantado tocar el ukelele, cantar, las clases de murgas,  ritmo, percusión corporal y  en general, las actividades en grupo que se han realizado. 

En los resultados académicos se puede apreciar que se premió la buena participación en eventos musicales y la realización de trabajos voluntarios propuestos en classroom, es decir, un esfuerzo extra así como el estudio regular hecho con atención e interés. 

Mi propuesta de mejora para el curso próximo es no abandonar las tareas diarias ( como sucedió este curso) sino trabajar desde el principio centrada en la clase pero sin dejar de profundizar cada 15 días en algún tema que sea oportuno fijar para ir creando hábito de trabajo que redunde en mejorar la calificación en la asignatura. 


Thank you for your motivation and colaboration during all the year. 

One photo to say THANK YOU AND GOODBYE to a happy year in Music lessons:
