MUSIC HOMEWORK-60s reports, Part I

NAME____________

CLASS (including half-group)_____________

 

Answer these questions about your artist.  I recommend you go to the store on iTunes-when you search for an artist and click on his or her name, it will give you a biography, and you will be able to listen to music samples.   Wikipedia is also OK.  If you have trouble getting internet access at home, you can do the assignment at school.  You can go to the computer lab after school or come to the small music room after school or during work period.

 

1-What style of music was your artist famous for?

 

 

 

2-Name at least three famous songs by your artist.

 

 

 

 

3-Name at least three interesting (preferably musical) facts about your artist.

 

 

 

4-Who was your artist influenced by?  (If you’re not sure, look on the biography section of iTunes, under “influencers”).

 

 

5-Listen to a couple of songs by your artist.  If you don’t have recordings by your artist, go to itunes MUSIC STORE.  (If you don’t have it, you can download a free & legal copy at apple.com).  It will let you hear samples of songs by your artist for free.  Then, write down which song you think the class should listen to, and why.  You can also try grooveshark.com or playlist.com.

 

 

6-Cite your source:
