Who are some of the most influential musicians and bands from the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, and what styles of music did they create?
Encourage students to think about artists like The Beatles, Elton John, and Michael Jackson. They can discuss the different genres, such as rock, pop, and disco, and how these musicians shaped the music we listen to today.
How did the music from these decades reflect the social and cultural changes happening during that time in Australia and around the world?
Students should consider events like the peace movement in the 1960s, the rise of disco in the 1970s, and the emergence of new wave in the 1980s. They can explore how these changes influenced the themes and messages in the music during these decades.
What songs or musicians from the 1960s, 1970s, or 1980s do you enjoy listening to, and why do you think they are still popular today?
This question allows students to share their personal tastes in music. They can discuss the elements they like, such as melody, rhythm, or lyrics, and how those aspects make the music relevant even today.
