20th Aug 2008 - YEAR 8 MUSIC TASK

Year 8 Music,

As you are well aware I am not teaching today so here is your task for the double period.
  1. Investigate the life and times of an Australian Guitarist:
  2. Name, Age, Style of music/Bands.
  3. Collect some pics/video of them playing
  4. Create a word/ppt/movie that shows all the details.
  5. If you have a youtube account post your movie up on youtube and email me a link to the vid.

If you get all that done..... Research one of following topics; The development of

  • the "Stratocaster Guitar"
  • Les Paul
  • Leo Fender
  • Gibson Guitars
  • The history of the electric Guitar
  • guitar amplifiers
  • Research the latest technology in guitars today - USB guitar, Robot tuning, Self Tuning, "Variax" guitars.
  • What inovations will come in the future for guitars/guitarists?

If you get all that done you are a master of useless guitar knowledge.

Make sure you email copies of your work to stagnesmusic@hotmail.com so I can check over what you have been doing.

Enjoy! Mr B.
