Project Finished!

This song took a lot of work to put together. However the more I worked on Audacity, the more I liked it. I wanted to create a song that had a complete rhythm of 5/4 so students could learn how to successfuly dance to this unusual time signature. The original song that I used, "Silent Sea" by KT Tunstall, had a 5/4 rhythm in it, but there was a minimal amount of it. So, I figured out how to create a complete 5 beats, and had that playing underneath the whole song that I created. You can listen to it here:

5/4 Rhythm

The technology in my project, the 5/4 song, was necessary for something like this because I would need an accurate, steady beat constantly going so student have a complete understand of how this rhythm truly sounds. Having the students discover this rhythm while learning other dance concepts in a movement sequence that I teach them is that pedagogy and content that is enhanced by this basic song.
