These mini challenges are a group project in class, where we learn from ear a song in one genre for part 1, and perform it as authentically as we can. For part 2, we are taking that song from that culture, picking a second one from another culture, and then comparing and contrasting them before combining them into one song in a mixed genre mashup song. For my group, we chose the song Sissy Strut (New Orleans Funk), and mashed it with an Irish Jig style. In both performances I play the EWI (Electric Wind Instrument) This was an amazing collaboration of ideas and creativity between our group and the final product of both songs is amazing to listen to!
