Pre-IB Music 9
Freshman Music
In Music 9, students will learn the nuts and bolts of music theory, develop musical
listening skills and explore what it means to be a musician. Students will work on
sight-singing, basic piano skills and develop a vocabulary to discuss and describe
music.
Pre-IB Music 10
Sophomore Music
In Music 10, students will review note reading, rhythms and key signatures as a
prelude to exploring the components of melody and harmony. Students will work on
sight-singing, and melodic and rhythmic dictation skills, enabling them to create their own musical compositions.
Masterpieces of Music
This class is intended to familiarize you with orchestral music. We will focus on
music appreciation and learn how to analyze, discuss, and compare musical
compositions. Students will learn basic music theory to help better be able to discuss pieces of music with similar vocabulary. Later in the semester the focus will shift so that the class will be devoted to studying a few specific "masterpieces" of music.
