INTRODUCTION
Some people think trying to read music is hard and difficult. Thefollowing set of pages will try to introduce the most important topics in
music in a very easy to understand way. Dont expect to fly through all the
lessons and understand. As with anything new, it will appear complicatedand complex but as you look at the examples and read the explanations itwill make sense, with that said, lets go on and introduce the first lesson.
The music that the musical experience is essentially temporal
rather than spatial is immensely important and does much to explain theunique nature of music. In other arts which deal with time, especially
drama and dance, space plays an important role. But music requires the perceiver to develop the ability to listen to a sequence of events and to
relate them to one another.
Thus music can be defined as the organization of sound. The studyof music is concerned with the methods, composers, employ to relate
sounds to one another. Yet music is not meaningless; it organizes soundsso that they assume meaning. This meaning results from the internal
relationship which the sounds acquire through their use in a musicalcomposition.
The activities in the book can help parents lead their children in
understanding new information, in acquiring new skills and in coping withthe lessons faster.

CHAPTER 2
The Elements of Music
After studying this chapter, you are expected to:
y develop music appreciationy gain through experience the expression of any one element of music as
a center of interest.
y Identify the different elements of Music.Music may be said to deal with sound solely for its own sake. Yet
music is not meaningless; it organized sounds so that they assumemeaning. This meaning results from the internal relationship which sounds
acquire through their use in musical composition. One tone is made to leadnext, with the results that the total effect seems to have meaning. This to
the organization distinguishes music from the random sounds that we hearabout us everyday. Thus music can be defined as the organization of
sound. The study of music is concerned with the methods composers
employ to relate sounds to one another.Before turning to these methods, it will be helpful to consider thegeneral characteristics of sound itself. Perhaps the most important feature
of musical sound is that it is experienced temporally and not spatially.When one tone to another, it does so only as time passes. The fact that the
musical experience is essentially temporal rather that spatial is immenselyimportant and does much to explain the unique nature of music. In other
arts which deal with time especially drama and dance, space plays an
important role. But music requires the perceiver to develop, space plays animportant roles. But music requires the perceiver to develop the ability tolisten to a sequence of events to relate them to one another.
Lesson 4: Rhythm
Objectives:
y define rhythmy differentiate the types of rhythmy discuss the main role or function of rhythm in music.
Overview:
In music rhythm is the order of movement which gives us theduration of tones and the degree of accent. By tapping out the melody of
the song, we become aware of its rhythmic structure. Music concerns itselfwith durations which have a clearly perceptible relationship to one
another. In Western music this relationships is usually based upon
multiples of either two or three. In a way, rhythm corresponds to visualrhythm.

Discussion
RhythmThe most basic of elements, is that which gives us a sense of
movements. Rhythm pervades all nature; we can sense it in the
movements of the tides in the ordered progression of the seasons, in the beating of a heart. In these rhythms is more than repetition; we areconscious of varying degrees of emphasis or accent, which evoke
expectation and tension.
Types of Rhythm1. Meter is a way of measuring rhythm. It is the arrangement of rhythm
in a fixed, regular pattern with a uniform number of beats in uniformmeasures. Meter is confined to the basic underlying pulse; it is always
perfectly regular like the ticking of a clock. The pulse of meterinevitably coincides with rhythmic beats but the number and
placement of beats added to the meter by the rhythm make music sodistinctive that we can often tell one piece from another merely by
hearing the added beats.
Example 1: Shows the rhythm and meter of Deck the Halls. Whenthen melody is played or sung, we hear the rhythm, whereas we fell
the metrical pulse.
Pulse
There are basically two kinds of meter: dexample, in which the accent falls on every othe
one, two, etc), and triple, as in AMERICA, in
every third beat (ONE two three, ONE two threethee, SWEET land of LIB-er-ty).
The written indication of meter is called appears at the beginning of every piece of musi
how many basic beats there are in each measure, the basic duration value waltzes, we have thre
equivalent for each measure and quarter notes or measure and quarter noted or their equivalent to e

Discussion:Because most melodies in Western music
are tonal and metrical, the pitches and durations the pitches relate to one central tonality and all
basic metrical pattern.
Normally the notes will not appear on ththese are exceptions to this: the hymn Joy to
outlines a descending major scale.
If this melody compared with that in example, w
