Newton Rocks, music for unison or 2-part choir, is an arts integration project combining music and science. Choir is not only fun, but educational – Ha! We insert studies of people, places and things into a fun learning tool. Sometimes the information in songs is fictional, sometimes, based on fact. The story of Isaac Newton, one of the greatest physicists, and the apple tree is a legend, but holds some truth. Certainly, Isaac Newton is credited with theories of gravity, mass and motion, concepts that are still supported in the study of physics today. Choir students will enjoy telling this story, adding a little drama, here and there, while learning a bit of history and science. This might even guide them to do further research. The accompaniment can be simple or a little more complicated, based on the availability of an accompanist. Leave out some notes if you must. The students and audience will still enjoy the rockin’ beat. The upper voice (soprano) melody can be performed in unison, but a harmony part (alto) is included, if desired.
