Music Appriciation Class 1306
The chant plays 
 And plays 
 For days
 The rays 
 Of chant
 Continue to phase
 Me
 
 Here comes Fraga
 Braga 
 Bout tardies
 And old music parties
 
 Here comes Fraga
 Hair so raga
 Voice so raspa
 
 Back to the chant
 So begins the rant
 About Hector Diaz
 Who he is?
 I don’t know
 Here no es muy frias 
 It’s almost noon
 Quiero papas fritas 
 
 Okay let’s focus 
 Don’t make a peep
 
 The nuns don’t sleep
 Prayers they keep
 On praying 
 
 First confession 
 I confess I don’t know
 How I got into this mess
 
 La Gloria 
 Glory to god the highest 
 
 The creed
 They all are the most pious 
 
 What does this have to do with music? 
 Why of course 
 Who started it all? Why the catholic
 With the cadences
 And trouble with musical maintenances
 The staff 
 Oh so symbolic
 With the craft
 Of notes 
 That float 
 On lines and moats
 
 Here comes Fraga 
 With more problama 
 Concerning the computadora 
 
 Okay after the computer science majoree
 Take hit and clicks a key
 Were back on course 
 
 Haha jamin’ to Luis Miguel
 Clapping to 1980’s pop 
 Listening to Fraga sing and yell
 So enthusiastic 
 Fragatasic 
 Half dancing 
 Half prancing 
 The way he teach
 Trying to reach
 Us each
 Joking around like Chong and Cheech
 
 Here come Fraga
 Suavé!
 He singa
 Suavé!
 He singa
 
 Music we analyze 
 Test dates we compromise
 Deliberate spelling errors on exams 
 I despise
 
 Many days pass 
 Until this one in class
 Today we come across
 King Henry the VIII
 And all the heads he tossed
 
 Not quite sure how this is relevant
 Draw a line in the sand 
 Fraga does command
 Draw a line in the sand
 Fraga does demand
 Draw a line in the sand 
 Once again Fraga’s tongue does land
 
 At this time Bach 
 Who was Lutheran 
 Had his heart in lock 
 With music
 
 He composed music for the Anglicans
 With catholic oratorio
 The three churches fight
 Over to whom he belongs
 Who can claim these masterpiece songs?
 Musicians don’t particularly care
 Nor do they dare answer 
 
 Here comes Fraga
 On to the Baroque Period he taga’
 We here instruments now
 Ooo and wow
 
 Acapella
 Developed an orchestra oh so swella
 Movements were called numbers
 In this class the energy 
 Weaves in and out of slumbers
 Sometimes we’re all in
 Other times the lights are on
 But the activity is dim
 
 Ah classical 
 The last of polyphony 
 Relaxation from the timpani
 And at last musical melody and harmony
 
 A story about Keith
 And Johnny who has aggression 
 Eeking out of his teeth 
 Intimidation from Keith 
 Has Johnny down beneath
 
 After the classics
 We hit romantics 
 Not quite what we think as a cruise across the Atlantic
 But the romantic none the less
 Folk songs and patriots are no longer suppress
 But out of nowhere comes twentieth century 
 Which sounds like hounds in a penitentiary
 Quickly blues, jazz, rock and roll
 The ending bell is near and has a striking toll 
 
 All this and more
 Entered the mind 
 When we came through the door
 However on this last day of classes
 It is time to test and see 
 Who fails and who passes
