Listen to these 3 soundtracks (at least the first two minutes), embed
them onto your blog (follow the link, then click on 'share' and copy and paste the embed code into the html window). For each of the samples answer these questions.
1) What response do you have to the music, how does it make you feel and why?
2) What qualities does this music have that would make it suitable for
a Thriller? (mention rhythm, volume, crescendo, major and minor notes,
instruments used.)
3) What part of a Thriller do you believe this would be suitable for
(setting mood, chase seen, stalking, waiting)? Be as creative and
specific as you like.
