He will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.

• God sings over us and loves us. He has a wonderful plan for each of us.
• He created the world according to his plan.
• When people create music they need to have a plan.

Overview • We will discuss four of the basic
elements or building blocks of music.
• We will see how these elements work together

Music has a plan or form
• We recognize the form of a tree.
• It has leaves, branches, a trunk.
• Music has a form including notes, melody, harmony and rhythm.

Sounds• Sounds are invisible waves moving
through air in waves, just as water moves in waves.

– Notes are the sounds that we hear.– Notes have a specific pitch and
length. Some are long and some are short.
– Notes on the music are symbols of the sounds they represent.

• A line of notes put together one after the other is a melody
• The notes are the part of the music that catches you ear as you listen.
Melody

• The notes of the melody may go up, down or be repeated.
• Interesting melodies have notes that move up or down more than they repeat.
• Good melodies are easy to remember.

Melodies may be simple
• This is a familiar melody, it is easy to sing and remember.

Melodies may be complicated
• The “Star Spangled Banner” has a complicated melody. It is more difficult to learn.

Harmony• Harmony happens when two or
more notes are heard at the same time.
• The harmony supports the melody.• Harmony helps create a feeling or
mood.

Rhythm• The rhythm is the pattern of the
length of the notes.• Rhythm may have a
fast ,moderate or slow speed.• The rhythm helps the harmony
create the mood of the music.

The composer plans how they will use the • notes • melody • harmony• rhythm to create a certain kind of song. They
create something beautiful that they can share with others.

God’s creation• God created us to follow his plan
and become the beautiful people he planned for us to be.
