Class Music Reviews

March 31st, 2008 by chrismangum

Share and listen to other students’ music and write about it here.  Be sure that your critique is thoughtful, helpful and supportive. Remember, most of you guys are doing this for the first time!  Here are some guidelines for your review:

1. List your name, and the name of the person who’s song you are reviewing.

2. What would you name this song? What genre do you think it belongs to?

3. Discuss what you liked, or especially enjoyed about the song.

4. What did the music make you think of? What lyrics or images can you imagine with the song?

5. If the song were edited again, what helpful advice could you offer to improve it? If you like it just as it is, say so.

6. Keep it clean and never mean.
