Music Appreciation, Tuesday, period 2

[sharp_as_knives]

There was only one teacher at the front of the class today, and Hannibal nodded at the students as they took their seats.

"Good morning. Mr. Starsmore is...indisposed in one of the ways unique to this island, which is to say, he is currently a snake, and so will not be here today. Hopefully, he will return next week. I had hoped to be able to find a full range of music for you all, but my knowledge of the sorts of music he prefers is dubious to say the least."

He waved at the stations he'd set up around the room. "So. Today we will try something different. These are all connected to a number of music sites from around the Internet. If you need help navigating them, please ask. Sometimes the best way of finding music you enjoy is to discover it yourself. So, listen to whatever you like, browse through the music. Your assignment for today is to find at least one song you enjoy that you did not previously know, and to play it and explain why it is that you chose it."

Welcome to Hannibal's idea of a movie day.

Looking for music!

Listen to the lecture, ask questions

Hannibal definitely has his own opinions on good music.

Activity!

He had to do it yesterday, so you get to do it today: find music you like! Assume you've got iTunes, eMusic, Spotify, whatever. Work together or solo, ask Hannibal questions.

Play your music!

Show the class what you found and explain why you like it.

Eat Hannibal's food!

Duh. Of course there's food. Because Hannibal.

In keeping with the DIY theme:

Green garlic bagna cauda (http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/recipes/detail/green-garlic-bagna-cauda)
Whiskey chocolate fondue (http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/recipes/detail/whiskey-chocolate-fondue)
All with appropriately moddable gourmet foods for dipping, plus tea and coffee.

OOC!

It took Rapunzel a little while to figure out how the computer worked at all, honestly. But once she did, she was happily browsing through music and was really taking advantage of Pandora's thumbs-up/thumbs-down system.

Which was how she managed to develop a station that was almost entirely Taylor Swift guitar-pop really, really quickly. Oh, Rapunzel.
