Lesson Objectives: SWBAT: Sing in three-part harmony. SWBAT: Sing and describe the difference between a round and a canon. SWBAT: Identify and describe the term poco rit. and a tempo. SWBAT: Perform and define legato. SWBAT: Define and locate examples of contrapuntal techniques within the music. SWBAT: Use expressive elements to perform the song for a concert.
Essential Skills to be Mastered: Students will be able to sing their parts independently for the song "Amazing Grace" as it is partnered with the sounds of "Canon in D." Students will create a smooth legato style of singing and work for long phrases. Students will scan the music for expressive elements and perform as a large ensemble.
IPI Level: Teacher-led instruction, Student Active Engaged Learning
Teaching Strategy Utilized: Day 1: Read aloud the text and sightread. Day 2: Discuss and review legato sound and underlying eighth note pules. Sing mm. 4-20 with all voices unison and on a neutral "noo" syllable pulsing the eighth notes in precise alignment with the accompaniment. Add the text when the pulse is internalized. Day 3: Discuss 2nd verse and importance of alto moving parts mm. 22, 26, 29, 31, 34-35. Why is the moving line more important than the melody? Day 4: Discuss and define canon-focus on the alleluia voices. Use a staccato "doo" until the choir can distinguish between all the moving voices. Determine if this piece of music has the qualities to be considered a partner song? Day 5: Review last verse. Focus on mm. 56-60. Use a syllable to accentuate the descending alleluias. Focus on part independence in a large group assessment. Day 6: Define contrapuntal and scan for parts of the song that this technique is utilized. Day 7: Discuss and perform expressive elements and polish for concert. Day 8: Self-assessment over the entire song. Discuss the venues for this type of music to be performed. Day 9: Polish for the performance. Day 10: Combined rehearsal for the performance.
