Music?
« on: February 15, 2015, 12:15:46 pm »

So i have a big question on the following: How do you understand music?

For a humanities class i have to pick 2 songs and discuss them in terms of instrumentation (What instruemnts are played), form, harmonic progression, and key signatuire (which I beleive is what note is used throughout the song). I have never before in my life paid attention to these things and simply liked the beat of music and its basic lyrics. Something my brother in law jokes that I am culturally challenged.

So any tips on learning what all of these notes like dm,C, A are? How to tell which is which? I'd be much obliged for anything that isn't buying the sheets of music online. Which I found here: http://www.musicnotes.com/sheetmusic/mtdFPE.asp?ppn=MN0116004
