Sound transformations
Sound transformations
In the lesson, students learn to recognize unique tonal characteristics and timbre while using an app that can transform any sound into a musical instrument through artificial intelligence. The goal of the lesson is to show students that each musical instrument has its own unique sound characteristics and that these characteristics can not only be recognized but also replicated through machine learning.

Aids
Teacher: projection equipment, presentation, computer, speakers.
Students: one or more melodic instruments and percussion instrument, equipment, external microphone.
What pupils learn
Each musical instrument has its own unique sound characteristics.
Machine learning helps us to not only recognize these features, but also mimic them.
Why is it taught
They creatively use modern technology in their work.
How do we know if they've learned
When listening to music, identify the different instruments.
After listening, verbally characterize the timbre of the different instruments.
