Look, Listen | Taegi

Twelve

POV: Taehyung
"Right, kids, for our first proper music class, we will be doing some composition work!" Mr. Kim exclaimed to the class. I think it was Mr. Kim anyway. Who else would it have been?

"What kind of composition are we doing, sir?" somebody asked.

"Well, for this particular unit of work, we will be studying the Baroque period for Western European music. The history, the style, and all of the elements- we'll be learning them all this term."

"What, so like Beethoven, you mean?" another person ignorantly asked. "That music period, innit."

" No, Boram, Beethoven was part of the Classical and early Romantic period, not the Baroque. I would have thought that somebody in an advanced music class would know at least that much general knowledge about music, but I guess not."

"Actually, my dad paid loads of money to let me be in this class, since it has a reputation of being the class with the most banter, apparently, but I guess the rumours were wrong. This shit is just bor-ing!" she whined.

Oh, she's one of those people.

"Please don't swear in my class, Boram, or you can get out," he sighed. "Anyway, would anybody like to tell me anything they know about the Baroque, Classical or the Romantic period?"

My hand shot up straight away as I hoped that he would pick me. I'm pretty sure that Yoongi must've seen my enthusiasm as I heard a small stifled giggle next to me.

"Yes, Taehyung?"

"Well, I know that the Classical period was from 1750 until 1810, right?" I said uncertainly, scared that I might have gotten my facts wrong.

"Hey, be more confident in your answers, son! Your answer is right, Taehyung, be more bold about it!" he laughed. "Is there anything else you know?"

Our class spent the rest of the entire lesson chatting about Western European music, which meant that I got to talk to him.

Min Yoongi.
