Choose a song that you love
Create a dance that directly is influenced
by the music and theme of the song
Your dance should be more than two
minutes and less than three minute
including at least one verse and one
chorus of the musical work.
Write a reflection on you song choice tell
me the theme of the music, tempo, mood,
and what the song means to you.

This is a solo project
You may use your phone, i-pod, or CD player to
listen to your music. If you know your song well
sing it. Make sure the movements are lyrical that
means every movement reflects the meaning of
the song.
