'Sea Dragon' song - dynamics game
An introduction to dynamics and the difference between a loud and soft melody. Professor Allegro explains these concepts with a game based on the song 'Sea Dragon'.
Different sea dragon images are shown and we are encouraged to listen for the difference between music that is 'forte' (played loudly) and music which is played quietly (piano). The change between forte and piano melodies must then be matched with the correct sea dragon images. Professor Allegro explains how this change in the melody can have dramatic effects.
