Last week we had an oral quiz on ostinato. Here is the breakdown
Quiz: Ostinato-Must be able to define the term ostinato. Ostinato=repeated musical figure or idea used over and over
100=word and definition
50=word or definition
0=unable to define
We have been working on ostinato for over two weeks and should be able to define. K did need some prodding but I think they understood what ostinato is. After the quiz was over, I introduced improvisation using previous skills learned through ostinato. Improvisation is spontaneously creating a rhythmic or melodic idea.
