How do we create musical texture? HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PLZPLZ
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Texture is one of the basic elements of music. When you describe the texture of a piece of music, you are describing the relationship of melodic and (sometimes) harmonic elements with each other. For example, the texture of the music might be thick or thin, or it may have many or few layers. It might be made up of rhythm only, or of a melody line with chordal accompaniment, or many interweaving melodies. Below you will find some of the formal terms musicians use to describe texture.

There are many informal terms that can describe the texture of a piece of music (thick, thin, bass-heavy, rhythmically complex, and so on), but the formal terms that are used to describe texture all describe the relationships of melodies and, if present, harmonies. Here are definitions and examples of the three main textures you will encounter in our class.

Monophonic

Monophonic music has only one melodic line, with no harmony or counterpoint. There may be rhythmic accompaniment, but only one line that has specific pitches.

Examples of Monophony

One person whistling a tune

A single bugle sounding “Taps”

A group of people all singing a single melody together without harmony or instrumental accompaniment

A fife and drum corp, with all the fifes playing the same melody

Polyphonic

Polyphonic music can also be called polyphony, counterpoint, or contrapuntal music. If more than one independent melody is occurring at the same time, the music is polyphonic.

Examples of Polyphony

Rounds, canons, and fugues are all polyphonic. (Even if there is only one melody, if different people are singing or playing it at different times, the parts sound independent.)

Much late Baroque music is contrapuntal, particularly the works of J.S. Bach.

Most music for large instrumental groups such as bands or orchestras is contrapuntal at least some of the time.

Music that is mostly homophonic can become temporarily polyphonic if an independent countermelody is added. Think of a favorite pop or gospel tune that, near the end, has the soloist “ad libbing” while the back-up singers repeat the refrain.

Homophonic

Homophonic music can also be called homophony. More informally, people who are describing homophonic music may mention chords, accompaniment, harmony or harmonies. Homophony has one clear melodic line; it’s the line that naturally draws your attention. All other parts provide accompaniment or fill in the chords. In most well-written homophony, the parts that are not melody may still have a lot of melodic interest. They may follow many of the rules of well-written counterpoint, and they can sound quite different from the melody and be interesting to listen to by themselves. But when they are sung or played with the melody, it is clear that they are not independent melodic parts, either because they have the same rhythm as the melody (i.e. are not independent) or because their main purpose is to fill in the chords or harmony (i.e. they are not really melodies).

Examples of Homophony

Choral music in which the parts have mostly the same rhythms at the same time is homophonic. Most traditional Protestant hymns and most “barbershop quartet” music is in this category.

A singer accompanied by a guitar picking or strumming chords.

A small jazz combo with a bass, a piano, and a drum set providing the “rhythm” background for a trumpet improvising a solo.

A single bagpipes or accordion player playing a melody with drones or chords.

What are the Differences between Lascaux and Altamira?
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Ancient art: Lascaux & Altamira Caves, Venus of Willendorf

You are here:

HomeHistoryAncient art: Lascaux & Altamira…

CAVE PAINTINGS

Most paintings tend to be of animals – likely due to their dependence on animals for food

Animals were believed to have been painted before a hunt – used as a form of magic to weaken their prey and therefore make them easier to hunt

Paintings are painted on the natural rock surface, which helps to add depth to the forms

Paintings were all found in caves that were set back from the main entrance – believed to be a separate area from the living quarters, perhaps used for some kind of spiritual activity

Paintings were painted overtop of one another – this suggests the original purpose of the paintings was more practical than artistic

Bison, Cave Painting, Altamira Caves c. 15,000-10,000 B.C

Altamira caves were found in 1879 – a hunter’s dog fell into a hole that proved to be the blocked entrance to an unknown cave – the cave paintings were on the ceiling – only discovered by a 5 year old girl – the only person who could stand upright (everyone else had to bend over)

Animals are painted in shades of red, brown, and black

Paintings primarily focus on bison

Bison were hunted for food, skin, bones and fur

There are at least 16 bison grouped in the centre of the ceiling – surrounded by 2 boars and a deer

Pictures are of the animals only – no landscape or horizontal base

Technical advancement at Altamira – the animals are painted on the natural protrusions from the rock face – gives them depth – also accurate proportions, used many different colours

Interior of the Lascaux Caves

The entrance to the cave was found by 4 teenaged boys – they stumbled upon the entrance when they found a hole leading to the cave under a tree that had been uprooted

Lascaux caves were discovered in 1940-41.

The caves in Lascaux are filled with paintings of bison, deer, horses, and cattle – all running across the walls

Some are simply outlined in black, others are filled in with bright earth colours – all show an uncanny sense of life

After WWII – the cave entrance was enlarged and the floors lowered to enable a constant flow of tourists (1200 people per day)

By 1955, the first indications of deterioration of the paintings appeared – due to the excess of carbon dioxide in the air brought about by the visitor’s breath

The Ministry of Cultural Affairs had the cave closed on April 20, 1963

Once the visits to the cave stopped, the causes of the changes eliminated, and the original climatic conditions recreated, the Lascaux cave art returned to its original state

A replica was opened in 1983 – called Lascaux II

What should be the guiding factor for a designer when using colors in a garment?
statuscvo [17]
You could use a colour wheel to make sure the colours suit one another. 
You could ask for opinions.
You could make the patterns and their matching colours originally.

What I would do personally would be to find a colour wheel and choose colours for a shirt/skirt/etc depending on what design the garment was and the shape and size. For example, if it were a mini skirt, I would more than likely choose a solid colour. If it were a longer skirt with - say - polka dots, I would choose two colours that compliment one another like blue and orange, or green and red.
