Hi everyone!

First of all let's sing with Alaska

Now, NEW TOPIC:
Let me introduce you a new style: Romanticism (also called the Romantic era or the Romantic period)
It is a style of art, literature and music in the late 18th and early 19th century in Europe. This movement said that feelings, imagination, nature, and old folk traditions such as legends and fairy tales were important.

Pinchando en la imagen encontrarás grandes compositores del Romanticismo y también podrás repasar a los grandes del Barroco y Clasicismo

Waltz was a very popular dance during Romanticism, but did you know that Vienna was the world capital of Waltz? Couples danced to Johann Strauss' s ''The Blue Danube'' during the city's golden era at the elegant courtyards and in spectacular elegant buildings.


The next video shows you different people dancing waltz during years

Hi everyone!

Let's start with body percussion.
youtube.com/watch?v=lKZHPxPM-Mw


Now, change the topic: Johann Sebastian Bach was very important in his time, but forgotten later. Nowadays, we consider him a great composer, just like Sheila Blanco is singing.
youtube.com/watch?v=gB3yA_wvDAM

Original composition: "Badinerie"
youtube.com/watch?v=keRfNhSeCdk

Remember, the baroque period of history is from about the year 1600 to about 1750. 

Two of the most common features are:
  • Lots of ‘twiddly bits’. Baroque music has lots of quick wiggles backwards and forwards on a single note. These wiggles don’t really add anything to the tune. They are simply there as decoration.
  • Lots of different lines of music (or ‘tunes’) all going their own way. These single tunes weave together to make the whole music. 

Now, let's play one of the most famous compositions: "Te deum" by M.A. Charpentier (0:58)

Let's change the topic and talk "Medieval ages".

The Middle Ages in Europe occurred between 500 and 1500 CE. It was the age of feudalism and manors, of lords, ladies, knights, serfs, and peasants. The government of Rome had disappeared. It was replaced by thousands of small, regional feudal governments, where the local lord was in charge. But the real ruler was the Catholic church. Religion dominated everything people did in their daily life. Whether you lived on a manor or in a castle or in one of the growing towns, daily life in the Middle Ages was deeply religious.

A quick guide to MEDIEVAL MUSIC
youtube.com/watch?v=4keEyZ7LFq8


Let's listen some music from this period.

youtube.com/watch?v=_4k8d-Jp3tw

But, what about the dances?

There were two main types of dances in medieval times: line dances and circle dances. The farandola is a line dance. It was a bit like a modern conga with people following a leader in a line. The bransle (o branle) was a round or circle dance. The word “bransle” comes from the French word “branler” (“to sway”). It is pronounced 'Brawl'.

Other dances were the basse dance and estampie.

Let's watch some of them and chose one to dance.

Finally, we are going to talk about Ancient History

Ancient music refers to the musical systems that were developed in the ancient past, literate cultures, including Mesopotamia, Persia, Egypt, Greece and Rome, which replaced prehistoric. Then, let's pay attention to the civilizations of the Mediterranean sea.

Sumerian harp

The Lyres of Ur or Harps of Ur are considered to be the world's second oldest surviving stringed instruments after the ones discovered

youtube.com/watch?v=cMPpUfhl5-w

The oldest known song, from Mesopotamia

The Hurrian songs are a collection of music inscribed in cuneiform on clay tablets excavated from the ancient city of Ugarit, a headland in northern Syria, which date to approximately 1400 BCE (Before the Common era). It  was discovered in the 1950s

Music in Egypt

youtube.com/shorts/NMf5J-IlDb8?si=PdgeWFu_UPJ0C39U

Music in Greece
Music was essential to the pattern and texture of Greek life, as it was an important feature of religious festivals, marriage and funeral rites, and banquet gatherings. Our knowledge of ancient Greek music comes from actual fragments of musical scores, literary references, and the remains of musical instruments.
