Music Samples and History

Listen to the videos to hear the opera version of Mozart's pieces.
As you play, try to imitate the expressive dynamics by shaping the phrases with volume changes and wrist float-offs at the phrase ends.
Contessa Perdono!


Theory

Play the Theta Number Blaster game and practice identifying scale tones and chord symbols. 
Tip: scale tones are labeled with numbers (1,2,3,4,5, etc.) and chords are labeled with Roman numerals (I, ii, iii, IV, V, etc.).

Watch the first 3 minutes of this Shaping Phrases Video and then focus on shaping the phrases of your pieces as you practice.
