1. RECOGNIZE AND DESCRIBE:

At least THREE examples of the following seven musical elements : Rhythm, tempo, melody, harmony, timbre, texture, and form that are present in this particular composition, using specific musical terms learned in the course.  Refresh your memory (if you have to) by rereading the lectures that cover these particular elements.

2. DEVELOP:

4. EVALUATE:

The composition’s creative quality: What makes this composition a valuable work of art?  

5. ANALYZE:
