Counting the beat- Invented your own instrument

In week 8 we ha we have been doing stuff around invented your own instrument and the instrument I can up with is like a guitar but its got more sound holes and it got piano keys on it and its the turning pegs are at the top where the turning pegs are and where the turning pegs are but there are piano keys but where the strings is. 

We had to make a drawing about a weird interment that is like you can start with guitar and a drum together and then add random stuff on it so its like a weird interment. then you have to example what is on our interment that we made and what we think that you would call your interment and what you think you would have on your interment.

We watched a video about weird instruments that we could of see or what we have seen. This is the link to the  that we watched and what we seen and what interment we could of seen before more of then we haven't seen before and the interment this is the video that we watched. video.

My drawing is a guitar with some more sound holes and more turning pegs and the turning pegs are where the head of the guitar and the guitar has 4 more sound holes more sound come out and so its looks cool. I also added more sound holes go then its makes it look unique and so it looks like I have made it myself and so it looks different to everyone else because everyone started with a guitar and added more onto it so it looks different because I like it when its different to peoples I also added piano keys at the top of the guitar. 

My drawing belongs to the string family because its like a guitar but it I added more then what there what there is meant to  but my instrument belongs to the string family. It can be made from anything but its mostly made from wood and they can be made from anything. You just play it like a guitar but it plays all different music when you play different turns when you play all the different turns but there are like all different kinds of sounds. It would probably be better to use when your doing rock music.

We got most of them right because we have done it for a long time and because we know what they are. An orchestra is a group of instruments that typically play classical music they know how to play without having there eyes open and because they know what they are doing they have to . There are four types of instruments in an orchestra:Woodwind,Brass,Percussion,Strings.

Counting the beat-Violin

The Violin

The violin has different sizes and its all depends on how long your arms are because if you have a small arm then you need a small violin but it depends on how big your arms are and that is what size violins also they have a bow that you use to make the music. The violin sounds good and its good to listen to at might but I wouldn't listen to it in the day if in like walking or something because it would be something you listen to at night.

With a violin there is sometime called a f hole and that like a sound hole on the ukulele but instead its a f hole and that what the sound comes out of the f hole. Also there is something called tuning pegs that's puts the violin into the sound it is meant to sound like. On most of violin have four strings to make different types of music that you use the strings for.

    

There is a bow that you use to make the music and on the bow there is something called there is something called bow hair and that what they use to make the music with there is also something called bow and the bow is what we all use to make use to make music.
