Listening Assignment 3
Due: Thursday, Oct. 8, 2014
Form
Select your first choice from your "Top 5 favorite songs" that we've been compiling for the last few listening assignments.
Listen to the song several times and prepare an analysis of the form. You as the listener may decide what you call a phrase or section. When there is a change, you decide if it is a variation or a contrast (or if it doesn't change enough for you, is it just a repetition).
The form should follow a structure of alphabetical letters for the sections, i.e., A B A B1 A C A etc.
Please give a little commentary on what is happening in the music to justify what you've called each section or part. If rhythm, timbre, melody, or other elements are relevant, be sure to mention them.
