MUS 102(General Musicology)


excerpts from ReHearsal House Programme 1 lesson notes.


WHAT IS MUSIC
According to the RH Philosophy of music, music is the most
sublime blending of sounds, in a manner that pleases the
ear-tickles its admiration; entertains by muse, feeds love,
feeds the soul and glorifies God. Now to expound further on
this definition, lets pick the high points of the definition.
THE MOST SUBLIME BLENDING OF SOUNDS
It begins with sounds, various levels(called frequencies) of
sounds exist; but only sounds that can be detected by the
human ears are recognized as 'sounds', there are sounds
which cannot be detected by the human ears.
Now for the sounds detected by the ear, we may rightly
summarize them into: d r m f s l t
Others exist of course, but may be found just between any
two of these 7 notes. Now Music firstly must involve
mixtures of notes (i.e 'blending' any two or more notes),
even a single note may be blended in certain forms to make
up music, for instance
d d m m r d f m r m l t...
Now for the blending of sounds there are a couple of ideas
that must be in place, what is the time value or beats for
instance, d d m m r d... may be fast, moderate or slow; very
fast, moderately fast, or moderately slow, e.t.c.
Before a composer,or musical sound interpreter should say
''we have a musical sound mix'', the first consideration
ought to be, IS THIS THE MOST SUBLIME MIX POSSIBLE?
our next discussion on RH's MUS 102(General Musicology)
would center on considering the most sublime mix...

Excerpts from PNO 102 (KEYBOARD ANATOMY)

Summary of Lesson 1 notes...

ANATOMY OF PIANO KEYS.
There are twelve(12) keys in all music, these keys are further classified into two folds(types):

1. The Natural keys.
2. The Sharp/Flat keys.

This keys' classification is not the same as the classification into Major & Minor keys(according to Major/Minor keys' classification, there are 15 Major keys & 15 Minor keys, that'll be discussed much later). Now in Pianoforte Natural keys, Sharps/Flat keys, are all defined by their "colours", the Natural keys are the white keys of the keyboard. The Sharp as well as flat keys are the black Keys on the keyboard...

The Natural keys.

In Pianoforte all white keys are referred to as NATURAL KEYS. Remember there are 12 keys in music, and of these 7 are Natural keys, that is "7 white keys".

Nomenclature.

The Natural keys(also musical notes) are named after the first seven letters of the English Alphabets: A B C D E F G.

Also look out for....

*The Nomenclature of the Natural keys
*Sharp & Flats
*Accidentals
*What is a keyboard?
*What is the difference between a keyboard and a piano?

(NLT)John 12:30-36
Then Jesus told them, "The voice was for your benefit, not mine. [31] The time for judging this world has come, when Satan, the ruler of this world, will be cast out. [32] And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself." [33] He said this to indicate how he was going to die. [34] The crowd responded, "We understood from Scripture that the Messiah would live forever. How can you say the Son of Man will die? Just who is this Son of Man, anyway?" [35] Jesus replied, "My light will shine for you just a little longer. Walk in the light while you can, so the darkness will not overtake you. Those who walk in the darkness cannot see where they are going. [36] Put your trust in the light while there is still time; then you will become children of the light." After saying these things, Jesus went away and was hidden from them.
