Elective Music - Assessment Task 1

Hi Yr9/10

I will be giving you a demonstration of your assessment task in the next few weeks. So that you cannot just copy my assessment task and present the same thing twice I will be doing and artist NOT from Australia. I will be attempting to answer the same questions as you and also completing a reference list.

If you are writing a report or essay for your analysis you MUST give me a CD or mp3 with the song(s) on it otherwise you will be marked down fairly severely.

Good Luck, if you have any questions please come and see me or reply to one of the posts on the blog.
