1. Music is everywhere, We use music at various events for many different reasons. Music makes us feel sad or happy depending on the style, the instruments and the speed. Music is an amazing tool that is all around us! *** Please note- The pictures are hyperlinked to the YouTube website they are from, you will only need to use this if the music doesn’t play automatically.

2. THE ICE CREAM MAN Who could forget the ice-cream man? The ice-cream song is high pitched, so it is very appealing for little children. This song it played loudly so it can be heard by all near. This music is very distinct from other types of music as it is electronic and very high pitched. This song is also very catchy, so people remember it so next time someone hears the music they immediately associate it with ice-cream.

6. HORROR MOVIES During horror movies, music is played during the scarier moments. This is to not only scare the viewer this style of music also helps to build tension. This music is has a jumpy rhythm and usually has a loud bang that comes out of nowhere. In this instant, mainly strings are used to keep the piece simple and thin, however it does become thicker in the middle. The music becomes faster (accelerando) to build the tension.
