Music Appreciation, Friday 1st period
Hannibal stood alone at the head of the class today. "My husband unfortunately had some things to take care of is his home dimension, so you have only me today. So, instead of surveying music on one subject across a large period of time, we will be looking at a number of different regional styles of music."
On the screen at the front, he pulled up a large map of the world, split into the current political lines. "Since I know we have at least one of you currently unfamiliar with the world, this is an illustration of some of the diversity of the world. Furthermore, most of these countries have more than one ethnic group within them. Some have very many more."
He let that sink in a bit. "So, we will hardly be covering every group here. That would take more than an entire year, and we have only one class. Instead, we will be covering the world from A to Z, with as wide a spread as we're able. He grinned. "By which I mean, we will be listening to a different group for each letter of the English alphabet. I have attempted to go with more traditional modes of music, rather than completely modern popular songs, and have used those with lyrics, so that you may hear a bit of the language of each. While exploring their cultures is beyond our scope, I encourage you to ask questions, and to explore them each to your own satisfaction later. To that end..."
He passed out a flyer with the information on each group they would be listening to.
"Enjoy."

[Unlike Breq I can't listen through the music today so she's so absorbed she forgets to say anything. ;) ]
