Hi everyone!

A soundtrack, can be recorded music that is synchronized to the images of film.

In 1896, when people saw the first movie someone played music to go along with it. This was the era of the silent movie meaning only that the actors did not speak. A musician played different music to show drama, the character types and the storyline. There was music to introduce war, indians, cowboys and other types to the scenes. There was special music to introduce the hero. Even the villain had his own musical pieces to identify him. Finally, in 1927 moviemakers figured out how to include a soundtrack on the film.

See how music is important to express the story with the following

Se pinta los colores,

Mi novio ya ha venido
ya me lo ha dado
y me ha puesto el carrillo
muy colorado.

"The lion sleeps tonight" is very popular across the world. This was popularized in the 1930s by South African singer Solomon Linda, who recorded it in 1939 with his group, The Evening Birds. Apparently, they were a bold bunch and got the idea from when they used to chase lions who were going after the cattle owned by their families.

Hi everyone and Welcome back!

Let´s start singing a new song: "This is me".

Here you  have the chorus

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out.
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me.
Look out 'cause here I come
and I'm marching on to the beat I drum.
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me.

(Cuando las palabras afiladas quieran cortarme
les enviaré un diluvio, las ahogaré a todas.
Soy valiente, estoy herido
Soy quién debo ser, este soy yo.
Cuidado pues aquí vengo
y voy marchando al ritmo de mis propios tambores,
No tengo miedo de ser visto
No me disculpo, este soy yo)

Here the song

Finally,  play with your Glockenspiel the next song: "Ode to joy" by Beethoven

youtube.com/watch?v=nLeIT3QwKFo

The score

The Ode to Joy (An die Freude) is an ode composed by the German  Friedrich Schiller in the summer of 1785. Ludwig van Beethoven used it in the  text of the choral part of the fourth and final movement of his Ninth Symphony. On the 7th of May of 1824, Beethoven presented it at the Theater of the Imperial Court of Vienna his Ninth, later known as “Choral". 

This theme, but without the words of Schiller was adopted as the Hymn of Europe by the European Union.

Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue

and the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true

Some day I'll wish upon a star
and wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
away above the chimney tops,
that's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue
and the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true

Somewhere over the rainbow blue birds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow, why, oh why can´t I?

If happy little blue birds fly beyond the rainbow.

Why, oh why can´t I?

Ooh, ooh...

Musical notation, do the online worksheet clicking on the picture below

Let´s talk about "Folk music", it´s generally not written in sentence form. Folk music was handed down from one person to another person.

The first forms of folk music were ballads. The ballads helped people understand many different things like politics, relationships, families, and work.  Other ballads explained a victory or loss at a specific battle, a political problem, and there were ballads explaining the origins of immigrants and their families.

Another form of folk music was geared toward children. These folk songs had quick rhymes, snappy or clapping games

Let´s see some of different countries:

*From USA (American indians): 

                              "Ani Kuni" (Ani Couni)

youtube.com/watch?v=ipzHIUyPZBg

Ani couni chaouani (x2)

Awawa bikana caïna (x2)

éeaouni bissinni (x2)

Ani Couni

* From UK

Girls and boys

Girls and boys come out to play,
The moon doth shine as bright as day,
Leave your supper,
and leave your sleep,
And join your playfellows in the street.
Come with a whoop, come with a call,
Come with a good will, or come not at all.
Up the ladder and down the wall,
A penny loaf will serve us all.
