THE CHORUS OF A SONG

• IS ALWAYS CALLED THE A SECTION

• REPEATS WITH THE SAME WORDS & MUSIC

• REPEATS WITH THE SAME WORDS, BUT DIFFERENT MUSIC

A BRIDGE

• CONNECTS

• SEPARATES

• INTERRUPTS

IN A SOLO, in a pop song,

• ONE INSTRUMENT PLAYS ALONE

• ONE INSTRUMENT TAKES THE LEAD

• TWO INSTRUMENTS PLAY TOGETHER

AN A SECTION

• MUST REPEAT

• MUST HAVE WORDS

• MUST BE THE FIRST FULL SECTION

THE ENDING OF A SONG IS THE

• INTRO

• BRIDGE

• OUTRO

AN OUTRO IS

• NEEDED IN EVERY SONG

• THE SAME AS AN INTRO

• A POP SLANG TERM

INTRO’S AND CODA’S

• ARE LABELED WITH A’S AND B’S

• CAN EXIST IN POP AND INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC

• ARE ALWAYS PRESENT IN ALL SONGS

IN THE VERSE

• THE WORDS AND MUSIC STAY THE SAME

  
  

• THE MUSIC CHANGES COMPLETELY

• THE WORDS CHANGE, BUT THE MUSIC STAYS THE SAME

AN INSTRUMENTAL SONG

• CAN HAVE A CHORUS

• CAN’T HAVE A CHORUS

• CAN’T HAVE AN INTRO
