Grade 12 Music, AMU4M

The Ontario Grade 12 music course AMU4M: three strands, creating and presenting, reflecting and analysing, and foundations. The museum maps five of its 29 specific expectations, through the Islamic world and its neighbours only: music and community, a musician and his portrait, and the oud.

Strand B: Reflecting, Responding, and Analysing

How music reflects the community that made it and what it does there, and how to weigh information about musicians; the museum offers examples from the Islamic world and its neighbours (B1.4, B2.1, B2.2, B2.3).

  1. Music, its community and its uses How music answers to the community that made it, and what it does there: a court institution, a shrine singer, a hybrid recording. ReflectionCareersObject
  2. Investigating a musician Gathering and weighing information on a musician from outside the Western tradition, and the impact of one performer on a genre. Careers × 2

Strand C: Foundations

The origins and characteristics of forms of music; the museum offers one traditional instrument, the oud, through its own sources (C2.2).

  1. The oud: an instrument and its ideas The characteristics of, and the ideas about, one traditional instrument, the oud, as the museum's sources report them. Invention
