Ostinato

Alright kiddo, an ostinato is like a repeated musical pattern that helps keep a song or piece of music sounding familiar and catchy. It's like when you sing the same little tune over and over again, it helps you remember it better, right?

In music, it can be a short melody, rhythm, or chord progression that repeats throughout a song or section. It's kind of like a building block that the rest of the music is built around.

Think of it like a train that keeps chugging along on the same track, but different cars or instruments add on as the train goes along. And just like a train, an ostinato can be fast or slow, loud or soft, and change in different ways as the music goes on.

So there you have it, an ostinato is a musical pattern that helps make a song sound cool and memorable. Keep singing those little tunes, kiddo!
