Fox Cities Performing Arts Center Education | [email protected] | (920) 730-3726 LESSON ONE: Stories through Music Objective: Students will learn about different instruments, orchestral families and how they work together to create music. MATERIALS Computer & Speakers Copy of “Peter and the Wolf” (pg. 8-9) Chalkboard/Whiteboard 4 Posters/Signs of different orchestral instrumental families OPENING DISCUSSION Every day, we are surrounded by stories. Even our parents ask “How was your day?” While words are one familiar way to tell a story, can anyone think of other ways we could tell a story? (i.e. music, illustrations/cartoons, dance). No matter which way we tell the story, all stories should have good characters. Characteristics and personality are two ways we separate one character from another. Just like characters, instruments have their own characteristics and sounds. Petra and the Wolf and Peter and the Wolf both use instruments to depict characters to help tell the story. Today, we’re going to explore how. WARMUP • Before students enter the classroom, post four posters or signs on the wall around the room showing the four different orchestral instrumental families (String, wood winds, brass, percussion). • Ask students about some instruments they know. Categorize these instruments in their appropriate orchestral families. • Share with students that the orchestra is composed of four major instrumental families. Play a brief sample of each family. • Strings: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WX0x9hOjF0I • Woodwinds: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-S5mlvTwUI • Brass: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ut_vq0eN1WA&list=PL2FDE34E0938C86F5 • Percussion: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtyyTUOwjRA • Ask students to walk towards their favorite orchestral family. Select a few students from each group to share why they picked the instrumental family they did. Encourage students to expand beyond “I liked it” into more adjectives and descriptors. • I.E. Does the instrument sound happy, sad, heavy, light, loud, soft, harsh, smooth, sneaky, strong, slow, fast, determined, relaxed? ACTIVITY • Read the story “Peter and the Wolf” (Pg. 8-9) to your students. • As a class, make a list of characters from the story. • Brainstorm with students the key adjectives and descriptors of each character. • Return to the instrumental families of the orchestra. Based on the list of descriptors, have students predict which instruments or instrument families the characters will come from. (Note: It may be helpful to remind students more than one character can come from each family). • Share with students the correct responses and each character’s themes. • Bird- Flute- Woodwinds • Grandfather- Bassoon- Woodwinds • Duck- Oboe- Woodwinds • Wolf- French Horn- Brass • Cat- Clarinet- Woodwinds • Hunter- Timpani- Percussion (Listen to each theme Here: www.philtulga.com/Peter.html) • Peter- Strings Fox Cities Performing Arts Center Education | [email protected] | (920) 730-3726 ACTIVITY cont.
