Inventing my own Instrument-HUR2

 Hi guys,

welcome back to my blog today I will be sharing with you what I have been doing for HUR2 this week. This week we are making our own Instruments. Lots of people in my class did a guitar mixed with a piano witch looked so cool but I decided to do different from everyone else and did a guitar and a drums mixed together with symbols. Here is a photo of what I drew.


There is a photo of what I drew. I decided to do a normal guitar and just with drums until my teacher told me I should add symbols to it so I thought it would make it look more detailed and I think it looks amazing. Here is a video of a 1 in a million Instrument Video  There is a video of a marble machine that looks cool and runs by just marbles. I think the marble machine would have taken so much time to plan and test it before showing it.  

Hope you enjoyed my Invention called Drguitar


Orchestra

 Hi guys,

Welcome back to my blog today I will be sharing with you what an Orchestra does and how it helps the band and why its important to have a orchestra. Orchestra is good for bands because it helps you tell when to stop and when to start. When having an orchestra you must keep your eyes on the orchestra because if you look away then you will not no what to do and what note you would have to do. Here is a video of an orchestra Video There is a video of an orchestra and how much better it sounds with a orchestra.

There are 4 Families of Instruments Percussion, Wood Wind, String and Brass. Here is a photo of some Instruments in those 4 families

There is a photo of percussion instruments now here is a photo of an orchestra

Meet the Orchestra | Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra

There is a photo of an orchestra. orchestra's mostly stand in the centre of the band so everyone can see the orchestra and so they know what there doing. If there was no orchestra in a band I think they would need a lot of practice in my opinion.

Hope you had learnt something about an orchestra and why there are always people standing in the middle with a little stick called baton.
