On the 18th of November 2016, Primary 5-7 got a visit from Pitch Pulse and Magic, a company from Live Music Now! Two people came, Juliette and Matt. Juliette played the piano and Matt played the flute, both were very talented. They taught us about how music can add emotion, set the scene and be descriptive. They first played a Brazilian Bossa Nova, then they played the Harry Potter Melody, the first part of the melody sounded mysterious, the second part was like a chase. We sketched what the music made us think of. It was very interesting. We learned about the families of the instruments; the flute is part of the woodwind family, and the piano is part of the percussion family. They also played the Bumble Boogie, which was very fast, a tango and the Dance of Goblins. Euan conducted Juliette and Matt when to start and stop, then Millie conducted them on their volume. We all really enjoyed the visit from Pitch, Pulse and Magic and we would like to say thank you to Juliette and Matt for coming to visit us. What an interesting morning!
