This week, Year 4 started learning a new song called ‘Looking in the mirror’. This song is about identity, families and heritage. When we know about our family’s background, we can feel connected to the past.
In class we talked about where our families come from, and who we look like in our family, because you inherit certain genetic traits from your parents and grandparents, such as eye or hair colour. When we look at our reflection in the mirror, we might notice these similarities.
This song is influenced by a style known as Electropop, a form of Electronic Dance Music (EDM) which began in the 1980s. Electropop combines elements of Pop music with an older style known as Synth-pop, with a big emphasis on electronic sounds. This song also includes dance beats based on Trance and Techno styles.
Watch and listen to us perform what we have learnt so far below!
