    I think this song is a very up beat song and it is vary catchy. If I were to pick a tone color for this song I would have to say a vibrant orange. This is one of my favourite songs.

    I watched the beat boxer and he is very good!!!!!! I think the tone colour would probably be a light blue because it makes me think of the wind and if you could see the wind that’s what it would look like, anyways i think it’s light blue because the song sounded “airy” to me like the colour and the wind:) The speed was a bit faster than the actual song but i liked how fast it was going. The volume was loud but not too loud so just right!
    Thanks for letting us be your guinea pigs:)!

    Wow!!! oh my goodness this song was so amazing!!!* The tempo of this song was definetely an allegro because of its very upbeat rythymn. The flute that Greg used can definetely hold alot of spit for that song! The flute was very sharp, but fluent and clear. Every note was breathtaking!! The tone colour for this song would probably be a reddish-orange because of its vibrant vibe and because of its catchiness. The volume wasn’t too loud for me and his funny face at hte end causes viewers to play it again:)

    I saw the third video and it was amazing!!!!!!!!!!! I think the tempo was allegro. As for instruments, Greg was playing a flute and beatboxing at the same time. I think the tone color is light pink because the flute is so high witch reminds me of the color pink. I think that the dynamics for this song are metso forte and forte.

    WOW!!!!! this flutist/beatboxer is amazing!!!!! I’d say the tone colour is a very vibrant yellow or vivid green.I’d say the dynamics are mezzo forte or forte.It is very upbeat and catchy. I think Greg Patillo is excellent!! I’d never heard of a flutist/beatboxer before this and now I’m very glad I have!!!! Thank you Miss.Buehler!!! :) :) :D

    i picked the beat box one. it’s amazing!!!!!!!! The tone colour would be a bright yellow because the song is very qiuck and catchy with lots of beat.The dynamics would be forte since it’s quick. It’s amazing how he can play and use his mouth again to beatbox. except his face made me laugh.thanks miss.b for showing us talented people because all of them were great!!!!:)

    I picked Greg Patillo and the tone colour is a lime green and vibrant yellow. I think it’s those colours because it’s very fast and up beat. The dynamics is forte because it is very quick and lively. I really like hearing him play cause it’s so cool that he can play the flute and beatbox at the same time. It’s awesome!

    He is frick’n awesome.
    I wish I could have skills like that.

    I watched Greg.And he was awesome.I think the tone colour of this song would probably be a nice light orange and yellow.I would love to meet him some day.

    Wow.I think it would take a lot of practice and air to be able to do that. For a tone colour, I would give it about a purple, because as i was listening to it the first thing that popped into my head was purple. Purple is a bold and amazing colur in my opinion, just like the flute dude Greg.The tempo was quik and lively(forget the actual word :( ) BUt I’m glad I got to watch that, even if it was a homework project! lol :) <3
