Dynamics - Louds...  Turning notes into music




 f
 The gorilla's piece is loud and heavy.       means to play loudly.


       By themselves, though, notes do not make very interesting

       music.

    To make real music, we first turn notes into a melody, or tune.

    Then we  give them character by playing them


                                    With jumps or steps,


                                            Fast or slow,


                                        Short or smooth,


                                            High or low,


                                                      and
                                            Loud or soft.
