Autumn Learning Journey (Activity 2)

 Hello everyone, this post is about my experience on trying out Semi-Conductor. Semi-Conductor is a site where you can be the conductor of a orchestra. 

It was hard to use that site because it's in online, and I don't really know what to do because I haven't learned anything of being a conductor. So I'm a little bit confuse, but I liked the song that they were playing. I learned that if you sway your hands faster, the music will go faster.

What is a conductor?

A conductor is a person that leads an orchestra, they are the person who controls the flow of the music in an orchestra. The people who play the instruments, have to follow what the conductor do. Like for example, the conductor sways their hands faster. Meaning that they have to play the instruments a little bit fast.

If you want to experience of being a conductor, here is the link for Semi-Conductor.

Would you like to be a conductor? And why do you want to be a conductor?

Autumn Learning Journey (Activity 1)

 Hello everyone, I planned to join autumn learning journey because I don't have that much to do at home.

What is the difference between rock music vs classical music?

There is a big difference between the rock music a classical music, rock music needs to use lots of instruments, like for example. Electric guitar and bass guitar. A classical music has a harmony, most classical music are instrumental and rock music usually has lyrics. Classical music usually uses soft instruments, and rock music uses heavy instruments. 

What do I prefer?

I prefer classical music because it's relaxing to listen to. If I have nothing to do, I usually sit down and listen to music. 

What do you prefer? Classical music or rock music?

Famous Musicians

 Hello everyone, in this post, I'll be showing you my work in hurumanu 2. Hurumanu 2 is music class, and we're learning about famous musicians. Our task is to choose a musician or a singer and make a blog about them. I chose Yiruma because he is one of my favourite pianist. He has a great skills in piano. Yiruma is the one who published river flows in you. Yiruma became famous in 2002.

Here is my work about Yiruma:

Yiruma is a famous pianist in South Korea, he published River Flows in You and Kiss the Rain. His stage name is Yiruma but his real name is Lee Ru-ma. Yiruma means “I shall achieve” in Korean.

Yiruma’s most popular song is river flows in you, it was published in 2001. Yiruma’s music genre is mostly classical Yiruma has lots of albums like for example, First Love.

River flows in you has a meaning, the song begins slow and the music becomes stronger as the song progresses. It represents love and what loving someone actually means.

Yiruma was born on February 15 in 1978 which means he is 43 years old. Yiruma was born in Seoul (Capital city of South Korea). Yiruma has a wife called Son Hye-Im. He started learning piano at the age of 5. In 1988, Yiruma moved to England and graduated from Purcell School of Music, a school for young musicians. Then he went to King’s College London and continued being a pianist. In 2011, he held 13 concerts in different cities in Korea.
