The Task

In this Section I am going to explain what we had to do and interpret in this Project.

You are invited to take a Musical Journey around the world visiting five continents.  En route you must stop at at least five countries each on a different continent, beginning in the British Isles.  The record of your journey may take form of a travel brochure, an illustrated map, a cassette with cover notes, a diary or any other idea you may have.  For each country you visit you must give a description of the kind of music played and of the instruments used.     

Listen to a example of music from each country you visit and describe it in your own words.

Write a list of the pieces of music you have listened to.

Here are the Continents and some of the Countries you may visit.  You may also choose countries which are not on this list.
