Music: Artist research

During music over the past few weeks, we have been researching an artist of our choice. I chose The Weeknd because I think that he has a style that I quite diverse. We needed to researched about them, when they were born, their music style, who inspired them, etc. We then had to give examples of our favourite songs, choose one, and then look at the timbre, dynamics and texture. Thank you Whaea Rose for the time you spent with us this options rotation. Below is my artist research slide: 

About Me 😁

Hi my name is Lilly and I am a student currently attending Bay of Islands College. I was originally born in Spain but my parents decided to buy a boat and we are now living in Aotearoa (NZ), after having sailed halfway around the world. There are four people in my immediate family; my Mum, Dad and little brother, and we all get on fairly well… most of the time. 

I really enjoy sport and therefore tend to put it before doing other things, i.e homework. I mostly prefer swimming and running sports. I love animals, ice cream and swimming, as well as running, reading, netball and art. I also really enjoy school. I like answering questions, preferably correctly, and am quite competitive, which is technically my parents fault since they are both very competitive as well. 

Not that I’m saying it's a bad thing. 

As for my goals… well I have quite a few. I would like to be a good student and an athlete. There are also multiple sports and academic awards available at Bay of Islands College, which I hope to be able to achieve at some point in time. And, well, that's me.
