Year 8 Canon Project

Year 8 hard at work....





Year 8 are working a ground bass project: they are creating a dance track inspired by the famous Pachelbel's Canon in D.

Other artists such as Coolio, Pet Shop Boys, Green Day and Oasis have used the same bassline.

Students are building a musical construction based upon the same ground bass. Their construction must include;

  • bass
  • sustained chords
  • broken chords
  • ostinato rhythms
  • a lyrical melody
  • drum beat
Finished products will be posted here!
