Unit 2 Journal: Entry #1

Music from the Medieval era is part of a larger classification known as "early music," even though the era starts around the year 450 AD. Coming before early music and the Medieval era, there was also prehistoric or primitive music and ancient music. What do you think these time periods would have been like? What would you imagine music to be like prior to the Medieval era? If music notation only got its beginning during the Medieval era, how do you think music was shared?

Respond to these questions in your personal journal in the Unit 2: Music Time Periods folder. You will be adding to your journal throughout the unit and will be shown when to do so.
