Metalanguage
In this section, the essential terms relevant to the study of GE 7 (Arts Appreciation)
and to demonstrate ULOa will be operationally defined to establish a common frame of
reference.
1. Art. It is derived from the Latin word “ars,” meaning ability or skill.
2. Humanities. It comes from the Latin stem “homin,” “hominem,” referring to man.
3. Nature of Humanities. It generally refers to art, literature, music, architecture,
dance, and the theatre—in which human subjectivity is emphasized and individual
expressiveness is dramatized (Cambridge Dictionary).
4. Quadrivium. A medieval university curriculum involving the “mathematical arts” of
arithmetic, geometry, astronomy, and music.
5. Trivium. An introductory curriculum at a medieval university involving the study of
grammar, rhetoric, and logic.
Essential Knowledge
To perform the aforesaid big picture (unit learning outcomes) for the first three
(3) weeks of the course, you need to fully understand the following essential
knowledge that will be laid down in the succeeding pages. Please note that you are
not limited to exclusively refer to the these resources. Thus, you are expected to
utilize other books, research articles and other resources that are available in the
university’s library e.g. ebrary, search.proquest.com etc.
1. Humanities (its Meaning, History, and Importance). “Humanities may be defined as the
study of man’s nature, his culture, the evolution, of his thinking, and ideas, his

aspirations, and ideals, acquired through the examination of his works by historical
analysis” (Humanities Committee as cited by Pasigui et al., 2009).
1.1 In studying humanities, man learns to be human. Through humanities, man seeks to
enrich and enable his early life by uplifting his potentials. He acquires the right behavior
towards others: softness, understanding, and proper conduct.
1.2 Humanities began to be studied in the Renaissance period. Rather than practicing with a
corresponding shift away from the traditional fields into literature and history.
1.3 During Roman times, the concept of seven liberal arts evolved, involving grammar,
rhetoric, and logic (the Trivium), along with arithmetic, geometry, astronomy, and music
(the Quadrivium).
2. Nature of Arts (its Meaning, Importance, Functions, and Theories). Art is derived from
the Latin word “ars,” meaning ability or skill. It covers those areas of artistic creativity
that seek to communicate beauty primarily through the senses.
2.1 Art begins as a human encounter or experience of nature in all its depth and variety.
2.2 Art begins with encountering something primarily outside of us and applying the human
invention, capturing it as a significant and worthwhile encounter – at least to ourselves.
2.2.1 Intrapersonal. The inner world of thoughts, imagination, feelings, and desire.
2.2.2 Societal and Interpersonal. Large group encounters and one-on-one encounters.
2.2.3 Metapersonal and Transcendent. We pick and choose those who don’t believe in
reality beyond human senses or our understanding and day-to-day experience.
2.3 A popular term used to designate art today is design, as in graphic design. The design
comes from the Italian word “design,” which means drawing or drawing a line; it also
means setting boundaries.
2.4 It represents or reflects the individual, the character of the period, and the place where
it was produced.
2.5 According to Leo Tolstoy, art is to evoke in oneself a feeling one has experienced and
have evoked it in oneself, then through movements, lines, colors, sounds, or forms
expressed in words to transmit that others may experience the same feeling.
2.6 Art is not in nature. Man makes art; even if it resembles nature, it remains different
from nature. What is art is not nature; what is nature is, is not art.
Scenario: A customer in a boutique saw a painting that seems to be a real woman…
Customer: “I never saw a woman look like that!”

Saleslady: “Madam, that is not a woman; that is a painting. A woman must be looked at
as a woman, and painting as a painting.”
2.7 Importance of Arts. It helps us to open our minds to the richness and beauty around us.
It teaches us to know our history and culture, as well as other people. It also helps us
communicate our ideas and feelings through sensuous mediums, like color, words, film,
and other media. Moreover, it helps us appreciate the aesthetic beauty that arouses our
emotions, enchants our senses, opens our minds, and kindles our imagination.
Furthermore, it cultivates or practices one’s abilities for self-expression, imagination,
and creativity.

In a Nutshell
Activity 1. Now that you have a comprehensive understanding of the different architectural
functions, it is time to show your creativity in interior design! Create and design your own
unique house constructions using a simple shoebox and everyday art materials. You can try
a more simplistic version, using basic shapes and artistic techniques.
Instructions:
1. Draw a blueprint for the shoebox house. Use colored pencils (preferably blue) and a
ruler on 8-by-10-inch or larger white drawing paper. Measure and draw a rectangle to
represent the shoebox's shape. The rectangle should be at least 4-by-6 inches in size.
Divide the space into room sections using the pencil and ruler.
2. Cover the exterior of the shoebox and lid with cut construction paper. Choose a color
that matches your house style. For example, use brown paper for a wooden house or
red paper for a brick structure. Cut the paper to fit each side (excluding the bottom).
Glue the cut paper directly onto the box and lid.
3. Re-create the rooms from the blueprint in the box's interior by drawing lines on the
bottom or floor. Lay the shoebox with the cover off on a flat work surface with the
opening facing up toward you. Draw the room divisions with markers and a ruler.
4. Make 3-D furniture using small pieces of modeling clay and construction paper. Mold
the clay into tables, chairs, or a bed and glue it to the bottom of the box. As an
alternative, create pop-up furniture by cutting small (two-by-three-inch) rectangles
from construction paper. Fold approximately 1/4 inch of the paper underneath itself to
create a tab. Draw the furniture item onto the larger (non-tab) part. Glue the tab to the
bottom of the box.
5. Create decorative windows and doors on the exterior of the shoebox house. Use
markers or tempera paint and a thin brush to add color.
6. Leave the lid as-is for a flat roof or construct a pitched rood using card stock or another
similar thick paper. Choose a size of paper that, when folded in half, will cover the
entire lid. The size will be based on the specific shoebox that you are using. Fold the
paper and attach it to the lid with glue. Place a thin line of glue along the two long
edges of the box. Press the paper gently onto the glue.

Big Picture
Week 7-9: Unit Learning Outcome (ULO)
At the end of the unit, you are expected to:
a. Develop a comprehensive understanding of the elements of music, classical music,
and orchestral instruments;
b. Demonstrate creativity and apply dance concepts to performing arts; and
c. Demonstrate creativity and a comprehensive understanding of the basic concepts of
drama and theatre.
Metalanguage
In this section, the essential terms relevant to the study of GE 7 (Arts Appreciation) and to
demonstrate ULOa will be operationally defined to establish a common frame of reference.
Elements of Music
5. Rhythm. The time element of music; is made up of beat, which is the structural
rhythmic or repetitive pulse of the music.
6. Tempo. The speed of a beat and duration is a measure of how long a sound lasts.
The duration may also refer to the silence between sounds.
7. Meter. It refers to compromise beats organized in recurring patterns of accent. A
conductor indicates meter through hand gestures.
8. Rubato. The subtle tempo changes freely and expressively. The technique,
commonly encountered in Romantic Era music, is also used in K-Pop when the band
goes into a slow solo segment between the lively rock of the song.
9. Dynamics. Refers to the relative loudness or softness of a sound.
10. Pitch. The pitch is used to describe a musical sound as high or low. The linear
presentation of pitch is melody.

11. Melody. In music, there is a melody that becomes the bias for a longer musical work.
Melodies may be created from various scales or families of pitches like the minor
and major scales of tonal music.
12. Harmony. It has to do with melodies sung together at different pitches. Harmony is
also known as singing in parts, which puts together a different pitch to form a cord.
The notes are played together with blocks.
13. Timbre or Tone Color. It refers to the uniqueness of sound produced by an
instrument or the human voice because of overtones' characteristic patterns.
14. Texture. It refers to the number of individual melodies and their harmony with one
another. Melodies are musical lines that do not refer to a single performer.
15. Monophony. (One Sound) Music consisting of a single line or melody without an
accompaniment.
16. Homophony. (Same Sound) Music concentrated on one voice or part with secondary
accompaniment and/or voice.
17. Polyphony. (Many Sounds) Music employing multiple parts, each keeping its
distinctiveness.
Essential Knowledge
This part presents the essential knowledge of the elements of music, classical music,
and different orchestral instruments.
1.2 Concerto. A long piece of music usually in several movements, for a solo instrument and
an orchestra.

2.1 Woodwind Instruments. Woodwinds are basically tubes pierced with holes. They
produce sound through the vibration of the air column inside the tube. Some
woodwinds have reeds. A reed is a thin piece of cane that vibrates when blown across.
2.1.1 Piccolo: Highest Pitched; Mimics sound of a bird; Smallest of family
2.1.2 Flute: No Reed
2.1.3 Clarinet: Single Reed; Expressive tone
2.1.4 Oboe: Double Reed; Sad tone
2.1.5 Bassoon: Double Reed; Lowest Pitched
2.2 String Instruments. Comprises the largest section of the orchestra. Crafted by carving,
shaping, and gluing wood pieces together, no nails or screws are used. Each instrument
has four strings, the vibration of which makes the instrument sound. Come in many
sizes: the larger the instrument, the lower the sound, the smaller the instrument, the
higher the sound. Sound is made on string instruments by playing their strings two
ways; plucking or bowing.
2.2.1 Violin: The smallest member of the family
2.2.2 Viola: Slightly larger than violin with a much warmer and lower tone
2.2.3 Cello: Bass member of the family; musician, must sit to play the instrument.

2.3 Brass Instruments. Metallic loops of tubing, in different lengths, with a mouthpiece at
one end and a bell shape at the other. The longer the length of tubing, the lower the
sound. Brass players' lips act as reeds. Sound is produced by buzzing with the lips while
blowing in the mouthpiece. Most have valves that are pressed and released to change
and produce different tones.
2.4 Percussion Instruments. Made of naturally resonant materials like skin, wood, or metal.
Sound is produced when the instrument is struck. The role of this section is to provide
rhythm and character to the orchestra. These instruments range from simple wooden
blocks to tuned instruments.

3. Elements of Music. Music has six elements: rhythm, dynamics, melody, harmony, texture
and color, and texture. The seventh form has been called an element, but composition
should be applied to achieve form. Thus, the form will be treated under the principles of
composition. Please watch and listen to this video to have a better understanding of how
these elements come together in music:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChlLV7LOMHDVNzrq_ekAXhQ
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QoLWvT1iMoA
3.1 Rhythm. The time element of music; is made up of beat, which is the structural rhythmic
or repetitive pulse of the music. In rhythm, each note represents a different number of
beats; for example, in 1 whole note takes up four beats or one measure. If you have seen
Pitch Perfect 1, where Ana Kendrick played the character Beca, she uses the plastic cup to
create a beat while singing Miss Me When I'm Gone. When we talk of rhythm, it is
important to note that it is interconnected with the beat, so what exactly is a beat?
3.1.1 The beat is the internal clock of music. It is like a constant pulse that does not
change. In a march, the beat is usually sounded by the bass drum. In music, beats
are organized in two sections called measure, which are separated by bar lines.
There are various ways to organize beats, and the most common way is having four
beats per measure, which is called 4/4; the same when you try to compass the
beat of Lupang Hinirang, which is 4/4.
3.1.2 Tempo – The speed of a beat and duration is a measure of how long a sound lasts.
Speed is measure in beats per minute or BPM. If the song is 65 beats per minute,
you will hear a beat every second; finger drumming is commonly done. The
duration may also refer to the silence between sounds.

3.2 Dynamics. It refers to the relative loudness or softness of a sound. Dynamics are indicated
by the following Italian terms that describe dynamic sound level.
3.2.1 A crescendo which is represented by this symbol < this means that as the sound
progresses, it becomes louder and louder, while the decrescendo is the opposite of
crescendo, which is represented by this symbol > which indicates that as the sound
progresses slowly, it becomes softer and softer until it is gone overtime.
3.2.2 Pitch. It is used to describe a musical sound as high or low. The linear presentation
of pitch is melody.
3.3 Melody. In music, there is a melody that becomes the bias for a longer musical work.
Melodies may be created from various scales or families of pitches like the minor and
major scales of tonal music.
3.3.1 Theme and Variations are often linked together because a sudden change in key in
long music creates a new theme variation. These are a common structure in

romantics music. One theme starts playing at first; then, the composer will
generally change a key or a melody to indicate a new variation. The composer may
keep adding new variations and could change up to 15 to 20 or more variations.
The theme changes may be in the form of changes in melody, adding a new note
on a continuous sound. Another is a change in time signature, so from ¾, the
composer may change it to 4/4, or they may opt to change the chords or the
rhythm that all depends on the composer as how he would see the sound fit to the
theme.
3.4 Harmony – This has to do with melodies sung together at different pitches. Harmony is
also known as singing in parts, which puts together a different pitch to form a cord. The
notes are played together with blocks.
3.5 Timbre or Tone Color – Refers to the uniqueness of sound produced by an instrument or
the human voice because of overtones' characteristic patterns.
3.6 Texture – Texture refers to the number of individual melodies and their harmony with one
another. In other words, it is the combination of melody, harmony, and rhythm of a
particular musical piece. Texture has three technical modifiers:
3.6.1 Monophony. (One Sound) music consisting of a single line or melody without an
accompaniment; basically, it is very one-dimensional.
3.6.2 Homophony. (Same Sound) music concentrated on one voice or part with
secondary accompaniment and/or voice.
3.6.3 Polyphony. (Many Sounds) music employing multiple parts, each is keeping its own
distinctiveness.

Metalanguage
In this section, the essential terms relevant to the study of GE 7 (Arts Appreciation)
and to demonstrate ULOc will be operationally defined to establish a common frame of
reference.
1. Drama. It comes from the Greek word meaning “to do” or “to act.” Drama is the
specific mode of fiction represented in performance.
2. Theatre. It is associated with drama—a building where plays, shows are performed
on stage.
3. Theatre Performers. They interpret characters, express emotion, and display
creativity through acting, singing, and dancing in front of a live audience.
4. Mimicry. In Aristotle’s view, Mimicry or Imitation is not a mere photographic
representation of things' surface, but it is a creative process.
5. Oriental Drama. It includes plays from the Philippines, Japan, and China.
Essential Knowledge
To perform the aforesaid big picture (unit learning outcome) ULOc, you need to fully
understand the following essential knowledge laid down in the succeeding pages.
1. Development of Drama.
1.1 Ancient Drama. Among the Egyptians of about 2000 B.C.E, drama existed in
religious ceremonies for the worship of Osiris. But the drama, as known today, in
distinct forms of tragedy and comedy is in Greece, in the festivals of Dionysus in
the 5th and 6th centuries B.C.E. The first time theatre truly freed itself from
religious ritual to become an art form was Greece in the 6th century BCE when
the dithyramb was developed. This form of choral song chanted at festivals in
honor of Dionysus, the god of wine, fruitfulness, and vegetation (Encyclopædia
Britannica).
