Term 3 week 2

Music Theory :
I learned that jazz was first introduced in New Orleans, America in early 1800s. It was introduced by the African-American people who were enslaved for a long time. I also learned about the big band era. I learned that in the big band, there was a really popular musician named Benny Goodman. He was also called as the "King of Swing" because he was really good at playing swing. There were also a lot more musicians who were really good at playing jazz music. I learned that jazz musicians used musical instrument in unique ways and different from the classical music era.

Music Instrument class :
This week, I only had one session of music instrument class because we had holiday on Monday. In the music instrument class today, me and my classmates needed to start looking for the melody of the song titled "Fly me to the moon". It was not that hard because it was available on the internet. From this task, I also learned about chords because I could see which notes are in certain chords.
