THE ELEMENTS OF MUSIC

MUSIC
Music has been an important part of the activities of
humankind since the beginning of recorded history.
Today, music is important in ways that were
unimaginable during earlier times. It plays a vital and
important role in the lives of human beings. It is found
everywhere in our world -- on television and radio; in our
homes, automobiles, airplanes, and offices.
Note: Don’t enter when reaching the end part, just continue typing and it will just go
down the next line. So that it will be full blocked style. (even at the margin side).
Humans use music in a variety of
ways--- for everything from personal
entertainment to contemplative
activities. Music has the power to
influence psychological aspects of
behavior both consciously and
unconsciously and acquiring
acknowledge of music may create a
deeper sensitivity in humans for their
environment and social culture and it
is believed to enrich life.
THE ELEMENTS OF MUSIC
As with all the arts, Music has its own language

called the Elements of Music.
These Elements are:
Melody Tempo
Dynamics Harmony
Form Timbre
R
h
y
t
1. MELODY IS THE TUNE OF A SONG. IT IS
A SEQUENCE OF SINGLE NOTES THAT IS
MUSICALLY SATISFYING.
Example:
Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star
Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How
I wonder what you are. Up above
the world so high, Like a
diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
2. TEMPO THE SPEED AT WHICH A
PASSAGE OF MUSIC IS OR SHOULD
BE PLAYED.
-is the speed of a song.
The tempo of a piece of music is the speed of
the underlying beat. Like a heartbeat, it can also
be thought of as the 'pulse' of the music
Largo: is slow speed Andante: is
walking Allegro: is fast
DYNAMICS
Dynamics: is volume within the song

Anything with a “p” in music means soft
p is soft (piano)
pp is very soft (pianissimo)
anything with an “f” means loud (forte)

ff means very loud (fortissimo)
m= medium (mezzo) NEVER used by itself:
mp= medium soft (mezzo piano)
mf= med. loud (mezzo forte)
pp<ff crescendo (pronounced creshindoe)

gradually getting louder
ff>pp decrescendo (or diminuendo) gradually
getting softer

HARMONY
Harmony is 2 or more notes played at the

same time.
 It normally takes at least 2

people to sin harmony or 2
instruments to play harmony.
Exceptions are piano, guitar, banjo,
harp, (or any stringed instrument)
• Harmony is when you have multiple pitches being played at the
same time. ... When we talk about harmony, we're generally
talking about chords, which occur any time you have three or
more notes played at the same time.
• The four main voices are typically labeled as soprano (or treble),
alto (contralto or countertenor), tenor, and bass. Because the
human voice has a limited range, different voice types are usually
not able to sing pitches that lie outside of their specific range.
FORM
Form: is how the music is setup
For example:
• Twinkle, Twinkle little star

• How I wonder what you are……(A)
• Up above the world so high
• Like a diamond in the sky………..(B)
• Twinkle, Twinkle little star
• How I wonder what you…………..(A)
BUT it is not about the same words (as in poetry)

its about the tune. (Sing it and see!)
TIMBRE
• Timbre: (pronounced timbar) is the sound quality of the

instruments. For example, a piano sounds like a piano
because of its
• timbre.
• You can always tell when you call your best friend if they
answer or if another member
•of the family answers because you recognize the

timbre of his or her voice.
 In music this relates to the instrument families
For example:
• Brass---has a buzz mouthpiece to produce sound (trumpet, trombone, horn, tuba)
• Woodwind—needs a wooden reed to produce sound (clarinet, saxophone, oboe,
bassoon)
• Percussion---sound is made by striking it to sound (drum, piano, cymbals, triangle)
• Strings---sound is produced by plucking, or strumming to vibrate string (violin, viola,
cello, bass)
Voice Categories:
• Soprano—high female
• Alto---low female
• Tenor---high male
• Bass---low male
RHYTHM
RHYTHM---LENGTH OF NOTES AND
RESTS IN MUSIC
Quarter note=1 beat Half note= 2 beats
Dotted half=3 beats Whole= 4 beats
1/8 note = ½ beat (2 8th notes = 1 beat)
1/16 note= ¼ ( 4 16th notes= 1 beat)
Quarter rest=1 beat Half Rest= 2 beats
Whole Rest= (do nothing for the whole measure or 4

beats)
8th rest= ½ rest

Suggestion: use this picture because it’s more clear and neat.
RHYTHM
4 3 2 6 > examples of time signature, top # tells you how

4 4 4 8 many beats per measure
4
6 timing means there are four beats per measure
1 + 2 + 1 = 4 4 3 + 1 = 4 2 +1 + 1 = 4
Bar Lines
Any combo works as long as it ads up to the top #
