WELCOME LEARNERS!
ELEMENTS
OF MUSIC
INTRODUCTION
Music is part of our everyday
life—whether we hear it in movies, celebrations, online videos, or even while
studying. But behind every song or musical piece, there are basic building
blocks that make it sound the way it does. These are called the Elements of
Music. Understanding these elements helps us appreciate music more deeply and
recognize how composers and performers create mood, meaning, and emotion in
their work.
Before we explore each element in
detail, it is important to remember that music is not just random sounds. It is
organized, structured, and designed using specific components. By learning
these elements, you will be able to listen more carefully, identify what you
hear, and even create your own musical ideas with more confidence.

NOW LET’S HAVE AN ACTIVITY!
For this activity, listen to the
song “Shake it Off by Taylor Swift”.
After listening, identify at least three (3) elements of music that you can
clearly hear, such as melody, rhythm, tempo, dynamics, timbre, harmony, or
form. For each element, write one to two sentences explaining how it was used
in the song. You may write your answers on a piece of paper, take a picture of
it, and upload it to the GDrive link below, or you may place your answers in a
file and submit it through the same GDrive link.
When uploading
