How do you determine your nonharmonic tones when given a piece of music with violin I, II, viola, and bass?

Sunday, December 13th, 2009

A nonharmonic tone is one that is not included within a chord. I am confused as to how you look at a piece of music and figure out the nonharmonic tone so that you are able to write your chords. Thanks!

Are you familiar with RNA? (Roman Numeral Analysis) If so, it will greatly help. But even if you aren’t, the best way to start is by first trying to identify your chords, then going after the nonharmonic tones as you come across them. Most nonharmonic tones are unaccented, not on the downbeat. This isn’t always the case, but more oft then not is. Go through your piece and identify all the chords you can, and any tones that do not quite fit into the chord, or come immediately before or after, are most likely your nonharmonic tones (be sure to watch out for seventh chords!)

Here are a couple of sites to help out:

What are some differences between the music you listened to as a child and the music you listen to now?

Sunday, December 13th, 2009

1.What’s your favorite kind of music?
2.How do you feel when you listen to this music?
3.Is music an important subject at school in your hometown?
4.What are some differences between the music you listened to as a child and the music you listen to now?
5.How does music affect (or influence) people?
6.Compare the music that young people like and the music that old(er) people like.
7.Does western music have any influence on your country`s music?

1. I like indie/folk or anything that’ll catch my attention. I pretty much enjoy it all.
2. I feel happy, sad, fast, however I need it to make me feel.
3. I’m not in school, so no.
4. I think I grew up a bit. I used to love the pop, fad music. I still love pop, but fad music annoys me.
5. However it lets them.
6. People like the music they listened to when they were young. So, it’s really just the change in the music scene, not the ages of the fans.
7. My country IS the western influence.

Is it legal to redistribute pictures, video clips, and music found on the internet for noncommercial purposes?

For example, I want to make my own music video and post it on Youtube. Suppose I use Timberland’s "Apologize" as music background, random pictures of celebrities found on the internet, and random video clips from "Titanic". Is it legal or not? And if I allow others to download my video without charge, is it legal or not?

nope.

see copyright.gov and chillingeffects.org

if this isn’t obvious that it is a violation to you, just what exactly do you think a violation might be?

How do I get music off the internet without downloading anything?

Friday, December 11th, 2009

I have an Ipod, and like 3 months ago my laptop (where I downloaded all my music) crashed, and Im stuck on a computer with no disk space, and I can download any programs to download music with. I wanna update my Ipod with some new songs but dont know how to get any. I just need to know how to save them to my computer without paying anything. Thanks

Any music from the internet, paid or free, must be downloaded to your computer first. Even when you tell it to go directly to the iPod a temp file on the computer is first created.

Friday, December 11th, 2009

I have 89 songs (498MB) and im trying to burn it to a 700mb disc, every time ive burnt it the music will not play on anything, How do i do this properly?

Using Windows Media Player

Step 3 Click and drag the songs that you want on your playlist from the "Contents" window to the "List" window.

Step 4 Move the songs up and down the list, once you have selected the songs that you want to burn. Think about the order that you want them to appear on the CD.

Step 5 Put a blank CD-R or CD-RW into your CD drive on your computer.

Step 6 Check that all of the songs you’ve picked will fit on your blank CD. You can take songs off the list by right-clicking on the song and then clicking on the "Remove From List" menu option.
