Blog Assignment #5

Questions:

  1. Name your piece in this blog post and describe the main melody or melodies in the music you chose. 
  2. Also, discuss the texture of the piece you chose.  It might be one texture throughout your piece, OR it may change. 

Answers:

  1. The piece of music that I chose to describe/analyze this semester is, No Guidance by Chris Brown featuring Drake. The melody in this piece is very smooth & soothing almost throughout the entire piece. It has a sweet, pleasant sound to it, that is very pleasing to the ears. This is one of the reasons many of us probably enjoy this song so much. It’s not too aggressive & it’s not too soft, there’s a nice balance between the two.
  2. For this song, I’m pretty sure it’s one texture for a majority of the song, but then it does change. There’s just the beat & Chris Brown’s voice for most of the song, making this homophonic. However, when Drake entires, you can hear his voice, plus Chris Brown’s voice quietly in the back & the beat, making this part polyphonic. Therefore, there isn’t just one texture throughout the entire piece.
