We are going to use the musical features of Calypso music to create a short composition in groups.
You will need to organise yourself in your group so that each person has a part to play (you can double up but all parts should be covered)
Chords:
G G C C
G G C D7
Use the following rhythm to play the chord progression above in 2/4 time.
Bass Line:
Calypso bass lines are often based around the notes of the chords. Using the below examples, complete the rest of the bass line below to fit
with the chords.
Vocals/melody:
Use your melody to compose a simple call & response chorus two simple melodies (call & response) played over the chord sequence.
Remember, Calypso musicians sing about events, problems and issues in society.
Extension:
Compose a verse to go with your chorus. You could use the same chords or change them slightly.
