LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

MAPEH 10 –20TH Century Music

I: INTRODUCTION
The musical styles that evolved in the modern era were varied. Some of
these were short-lived, being experimental and too radical in nature, while
others found an active blend between the old and new one

II: LEARNING COMPETENCY

1. Describes distinctive musical elements of given pieces in 20th century
styles.

III: OBJECTIVES
At the end of the learning activity sheet, the learner are expected to
 Distinguish certain Musical pieces and styles of the 20th Century
 Explain how traditional music evolved into modern style
 Differentiate between Electronic Music and Chance music.

IV: DISCUSSION:
The new musical styles created by 20th century classical composers were truly
unique and innovative. They experimented with the elements of rhythm,
melody, harmony, tempo, and timbre in daring ways never attempted before.
Some even made use of electronic devices such as synthesizers, tape recorders,
amplifiers, and the like to introduce and enhance sounds beyond those
available with traditional instruments. Among the resulting new styles were
electronic music and chance music. These expanded the concept of music far
beyond the conventions of earlier periods, and challenged both the new
composers and the listening public. As the 20th century progressed, so did the
innovations in musical styles as seen in the works of these composers. From
France, Edgard Varese’s use of new instruments and electronic resources led to
his being known as the “Father of Electronic Music” and a description of him
as “The Stratospheric Colossus of Sound.” From Germany, there was Karlheinz
Stockhausen, who further experimented with electronic music and musique
concrete. Stockhausen’s electronic sounds revealed the rich musical potential
of modern technology. From the United States, there was John Cage with his
truly unconventional composition techniques. Cage’s works feature the widest
array of sounds from the most inventive sources.
