    This document outlines a music curriculum for 7th and 8th grade general music students. The topic is critical listening, with the key learning being that all music can be described using academic terminology regardless of its origin. The unit question asks what students hear in a piece of music. There are three concepts: using academic language to describe music, applying that language to analyze what is heard in a piece, and understanding musical style. Vocabulary terms are defined for describing musical elements like style, expression, tone color, tempo, dynamics and articulation.
