Written part of your home work this week is to go through your songs and determine where the ending consonant sounds go at the end of each phrase. Do this in pencil so you can correct any mistakes. Follow the way we did it in class and you will do fine.
In addition to working on the other 3 songs, here's a new one to listen to and get a good feel for. I wanted to expose you to something you probably haven't gotten to work with much - Jazz~! It's a melody with words you know in a meter that will be NEW! Try to count this one out! It's a jazz progression set in 5/4 (5 beats per measure, quarter note gets the beat). Anybody know a good saxophone player?
