The Performing Arts and Inspiration

Complete one of the following options for your Week 3 assignment:

Option A

Description of Dance Styles

Select two styles of dance--such as ballet, modern dance, folk dance, and jazz dance--as described in your text.

Describe each style of dance, and include the following:

• History and development of the style
• Discussion of your understanding of the use of line, form, repetition, and rhythm in each piece
• Description of the inspiration for the work in terms of story, theme, and image
• Description of what the movements of both styles communicate to you in terms of mood
• Description of what influences each dancer, or the choreographer, in the performance of each style or creation of a new dance performance

Submit your assignment in one of the following formats:

• A 700- to 1,050-word paper

Playlist Mixtape

Create a playlist of six to nine musical works.

Organize your selections under a theme such as "Music for Motivation" or "Cross-Country Playlist." Be as creative as you like.

Include the following:

• Two to three works of popular music, such as rock, pop, country, dance, or hip-hop
• Two to three works of medieval or classical music; selections may include cantatas, oratorio, fugues, and so forth
• Two to three works from other musical forms such as opera, jazz, or folk music

Write a 350- to 700-word summary of your playlist which discusses how the formal and technical qualities of music affect you; in other words, how does music create a certain type of mood, and is it successful in prompting a response from you, emotional or otherwise? Use at least five to seven vocabulary terms from the text in your discussion, which may include but not limited to the following:

• Form
• Composition
• Call and response
