Music Question

Temp Track Selection Assignment

Assignment Overview

In this assignment, you will find 3 (three) music pieces that could be used as a “temp track” to support the following scenes. At the moment, we can only use orchestral instruments or pieces – no singer-songwriter, rock, or electronic music. You can start by researching from the Chronology of Composers list provided and mentioned in the lecture. After finding the three pieces, briefly describe why you think they could be used as temp tracks.
