Journal
Cycle 5 #17 2nd Period Orchestra ONLY
Write a 4 measure piece of music in 4/4 time and in the key of D Major.
Use regular notebook paper to draw a 5 line staff first, then add your clef sign (treble, alto, or bass), key signature (F#,C#),
and barlines to separate the measures. Only use half notes, half rests, quarter notes, quarter rests, whole notes, and
whole rests. Place a double barline at the end of the piece. Play your piece as you compose it. Make changes as
you go. Remember, writing a piece of music is just like writing a story. The first thing you write usually needs
to be revised or edited. Have fun!
