Volume So loud I can’t hear
myself think
Loud enough that I
can’t hear myself
speak
Loud-ish in some parts of
the room but quiet in
others
So quiet I can hear the
toilets flush
Tempo Rapid: Hands are
hurriedly smacked
together
Fast: Hands are
quickly brought
together
Leisurely: Hands are hit
together at an unhurried
pace
Slow: Fingers are slowly
tapped together
Dynamics Erupts suddenly,
builds to a
deafening crescendo
that is sustained for
a second or more,
then fades slowly
and reluctantly
Builds up for a
second, peaks, then
fades
No change in dynamics:
Half-hearted throughout
Begins with a silent pause,
pitter-pats for a second,
then fizzles
