By the end of today's music class, students will learn how to create two-part inventions. The class will review genres like symphonies, sonatas, and inventions. They will learn how to craft musical themes that start on the tonic note and have variety in motion and rhythm. Students will also learn techniques to alter themes, such as sequencing, augmentation/division, and inversion. The goal is for students to combine these strategies to create complex, altered themes.
