Moonlight inspired pieces and poems by 5Ry and 5/6O
Classes 5Ry and 5/6O have been working on pieces inspired by Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. They have composed triplet patterns and layered them with another pattern before combining them with a poem written in the Victorian era ; some stunning results I am sure you'll agree!
