Hello to all my students,

How are you? Let's do something more today with the music I played for you in class! Thank you for sending me your files. 

Please listen to the first two pieces of music again - and this time to click on some videos of the first two artists whose pieces of music I played. I also have information links you can click on about these artists. 

Would these video images, and reading about these musicians, change your ideas about what you wrote? 

Activity
1. Here is a video clip of the first piece of music you heard - Jacques Loussier and his version of J.S. Bach's "Siciliano in G Minor." Listen to this. 

Click here (ここもクリックしてください）for a Wikipedia article (in Japanese) about Jacques Loussier. 

2. Here is a video clip of the second piece of music you heard - Ronny Jordan and his song "After Hours." 

Click here (ここもクリックしてください) for a Wikipedia article (in Japanese) about Ronny Jordan. 

What do you think of these musicians? Does seeing the artists' pictures or some images connected to their music, or reading about them on Wikipedia, change your own images of the music? 

Hope you enjoyed listening to them again. 

See you next time!
