TUES 7/30/13

talking about tension and release 
what is the feeling of each moment along that spectrum and how do the Who use dynamics to accentuate that in Whiskey Man

we also talk about the instrumentation of rock music -
the development of loud music equipment and power trios
shifting focus onto texture and volume



then we look at some more rock hybrids:  

extended Classical-like forms





       rock bands with no guitar



incorporating extended harmony, minimalism, and dissonance into long form pop music


bands who use noise and improvisation:



traditional folk styles, protest and heavy music
