(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Very Hard of Arts

João and Maria are learning about rhythm and melody in their Art class. They have discovered that the games of 'Tug of War' and 'Hot Potato' can help understand these musical concepts. By pulling the rope in 'Tug of War', the children realize that the force exerted and the rhythm of the pulls can be compared to a music, where intensity and tempo are essential. In the game of 'Hot Potato', where a hot potato is passed from hand to hand until the music stops, they notice that the speed at which the potato is passed resembles the concept of melody, which is the succession of sounds organized at different pitches. Considering these games, explain how João and Maria can apply the principles of rhythm and melody during a round of 'Hot Potato' to create a 'music' with the game's rules. Think about how the variation in speed and the organization of passing the potato can represent musical elements and describe a 'music measure' based on this adaptation of the traditional game.

During the Middle Ages, Gothic art flourished as a visual expression of the Christian faith and a reflection of the beliefs and values of the time. Gothic architecture, with its high vaults and stained glass windows, was designed to elevate the observer's spirit to the divine. Considering the importance of religious symbolism in Gothic art, describe how the architectural elements and stained glass windows of Gothic cathedrals served as means of communicating Christian theology to the population at that time. Analyze the role of light, both natural and projected by the stained glass windows, in this context of artistic and religious communication. Relate your analysis to the concept of 'synthesis of the arts' that characterized medieval artistic production, combining architecture, sculpture, and painting for a common and unified purpose.

Imagine that you and your friends are playing in a music band at school. You have various instruments such as drums, flutes, and even objects that are not musical instruments but make different sounds.

Remember, there are no right or wrong answers, we just want to hear your creative ideas!
