Musical Emotions

Music can share so many different emotions with us. Some songs can make us feel happy and excited, while other songs can make us feel sad or relaxed. The best part about this, though, is that one song could have a totally different emotion for different people! A song that makes you feel happy might not give the same feeling to somebody else, and that’s one of the reasons that music is so special!

I’d love to hear what kind of music gives you an emotional connection. See if you can find a different answer for each of these emotions. Your answers could be a song title, a personal experience (like “listening to my brother play piano”, or “hearing my mom singing”), or something else!

The music that makes me feel excited is…

 

The music that makes me feel sad is…

 

The music that makes me feel calm is…

 

The music that makes me feel ___________ (pick a different emotion!) is….

 

I’d love to hear your answers, so please send them to derek.maroney@burnabyschools.ca

    The music that makes me feel excited is banjo and recorder
    Violin makes me feel sad
    I like the sound of piano and it makes me feel calm
    The music that has drum beats makes me feel strong and active!
