Blog 7 Listneing exercise

Today in class we participated in a listening excercise. During this exercise we listened to several different peices of music and wrote down the emotions of the music. We also discussed imitaition theory,  arousal theory, and expression theory and how it was related to the peices of music we listend to. All the examples of music had there own unique style that I thought was very interesting. After listening to the music we discussed what we thought was going on throughout the songs. For example, if the song sounded peaceful, happy, sad, hopeful, exciting and more. I thought it was interesting to here what people had to say about the music and compare it to what I thought.
