Music: Find pieces on the form CD-R (on reserve in Library) for the three forms your group is assigned. Record the timings of the sections of each piece. Create a listening guide in PowerPoint that details the form of your three pieces. For each section of the piece, have a screen that labels its location in the form. Also, provide written commentary explaining your choice of section. For example, if it’s a set of variations ( (A1, A2, A3, A4, A5...) you’d have the same basic melody, but it could be varied in its rhythm or instrumentation (or both) during each variation.

During the presentation the tech support person can advance the PowerPoint screens by hand as music plays and each event occurs.

• binary (AB)
• ternary (ABA)
• rondo (ABACADA, ABACABA, etc.)
• theme & variations (A1, A2, A3, A4, A5...)
