This instrumental made me want to fall asleep. I felt bored while listening to this. I wasn’t too thrilled about the selection. It was like watching a movie that was played in the 1960s. While you are waiting for a good scene of the movie and they play this certain tune to make you think something good was about to come up next. Instead, the scene turns out to be a sad part in the movie. The contour of the piece varies as it goes from a low tune to a high tune then back down again. It has many different chords. The musical form was repetitious and ostinato. There were only two different textures that I heard in this piece. At the beginning of the instrumental the texture started off as monophonic. Near the end at 5:22 was a polyphonic texture
It is a short instrumental peace and the melody is repeated for several times. My favourite version is the orchestration one.
This piece has quite a few elements like the use of musical ideas. There are both A and B ideas expressed through the music lasting no longer than six seconds. This of course is different pertaining to solos due to the fact
The song is an instrumental that features an average upbeat solo piano intro that soon picks up pace to a faster tempo song bringing in the bass drum and an accordion to establish the main theme of the song at the five second mark. Then at fifteen second mark, the electric guitar comes in and the rest of the drum kit is brought in to bring the song to its main riff. Then at the twenty-eight second mark all the instruments but the piano leave, which is followed by a light ascending scale to bring the song to a close. The song is in 4/4 time and features a mainly eighth to fourth note melody that constantly repeats which creates the upbeat feel.
The title of the first song is “Roman Carnival Overture, Op. 9” , preformed by the Youtube Symphony Orchestra and written by Hector Berlioz. It is a classical piece composed by Michael Tilson Thomas. The tempo for this song was all over the place. It starts off as a crescendo, then towards the end of the crescendo it becomes a mezzo-forte allegro. Suddenly it drops down to a pianissimo largo. It goes on like that for a few more steady beats then turns into a piano. As more instruments join in, it becomes a mezzo-piano adagio. When the chorus comes on it turns into an allegro. Throughout most of it, it is legato. There were many times in the beginning and end that it was an accelerando, but through most of the middle it is a ritardando. I could not tell what the meter was for this song because it seemed like it was all over the place. For rhythm, I noticed that there were a few parts that were repeated, but there was not any syncopation. The melody was predominantly conjunct and it seemed to be very tuneful. The harmony became a little dissonant in the beginning, but during most of it, it was consonant. The texture was homophonic because there were many instruments playing for most of it. The only time it was monophonic was at the start when there was a solo. The concert section that was an allegro, put me in thrilled mood. The decrescendo largo part was so moving that it made me want to cry. Overall, I liked it, it was very consonant, which made it pleasing to listen to. It was very good because the temp was vivace for a good amount of the song. This music made me picture a relationship between a man and a woman. Throughout parts they fight and during other parts they don’t, but no matter what they do, they are very passionate throughout it all.
The Non-diegetic music of accordions soft lullaby adds a sense of romanticized European / Italian historical ambiance to the
This journal is about the musical piece composed by a man named Benjamin Britten titled The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra. This piece was surprisingly interesting to me as it created different feelings of emotions through the instruments volume, sync, and rhythm. I do like various instrumental styles of music, however, I was hesitant about listening to a classical style orchestra. Throughout the piece it seemed the sounds would constantly change, which reminded me of the early black and white cartoons that relied on classical style music to show the emotions they were trying to make the audience feel. For example, I remember a scene from an episode of the old cartoon Popeye, when there was fast paced instrumental music in the background while Popeye was saving Olive Oyl from a dangerous situation and they both were running to get to safety. The xylophone from Bitten’s composition is what made me think of that exact episode of Popeye and Olive Oly running to get to safety.
Monteverdi combines styles and forms of music here to create a true masterpiece. Even though I have not studied composers very much you can get a feeling of true accomplishment by listening to this piece. AS a whole piece it flows well. The instruments accompany the voices well and the piece is fun tp listen to.

I’ve been taught from an early age to believe that no dream is ever too grandiose. Therefore, I took it upon myself to not only dream but to also work tirelessly towards making my dreams, my reality. I’m the product of the garment hemmed and fitted by multiple hands- family, friends, mentors, and strangers included. I’m made aware that my fate lies only in my hands and to never wait for someone else to decide it solely based on their limited view. Also from an early age, the difference between being ordinary and extraordinary was heavily instilled upon me. To numerous people of similar background, graduating high school and going on to attend college is extraordinary- a grand accomplishment in fact. Similarly, balancing 18 credit hours of classes, working 16 hours during the school week and volunteering on the weekends while maintaining
Right now I want to introduce this work with more detail information. This band work of Scenes from the Louvre created for the original film score for the 1964 documentary. Scenes from The Louvre was premiered March 13, 1966, conducted by the composer. So there are five movements in this works. The first one is an introduction focus on the film score. Another three movements are based on the Renaissance tunes. The movement 2 called Children’s Gallery is a theme based on Tielman Susato’s “Ronde and Saltarello.” Themes by court composers Jean Baptiste Lully and Pietro Antonio Cesti serve as a base for movement 3, “The King of France,” a chorale and development. Movement 4, “The Nativity Paintings,” is based on “In delci jubilo;” the same theme used by Dello Joio in “Variants on a Medieval Tune” and for all thirteen movements of “Colonial Variants.” The final movement, “Finale,” is based on Albrici’s “Cestiliche Sonate.” Primarily written around the keys of C, G and F
In “Recitatif” by Toni Morrison, two young girls Roberta and Twyla meet one another at a state home for orphan and foster children. It is apparent from the start that either of the girls is white or black. Even at their young age, they both have preconceived expectations of the other because of their difference in race. However, as each character ages and is developed further, many of their traits could be that of someone white or black, albeit they contrast in personality. As a result of these traits, readers will likely unconsciously try to racially classify Roberta and Twyla only to change their mind a minute later. “Recitatif” forces readers to abandon the preconceived stereotypes and realize that they are constantly
This was a fairly simple and straightforward piece. It started out slow with small building crescendos, which became more and more powerful. It had a dark, moody sound and I think that I was played in a minor key. There were many reverberating note to convey this eerie and sad tone. It became progressively more dramatic and intense, constantly repeated with stronger tone color.
Beethoven's fifth symphony in c major ,I chose this song for the scenes when Johnny and Ponyboy were in the church. I chose this song because it’s slow and fast at the same time. I picked this song because it fit the mood in the scenes because it matched the mood. I thought this song would be good because it’s calm and frantic at the same time, I also thought it would match Ponyboy’s thoughts during that time.
First of all, this must be the weirdest and funniest song title I ever read in a long time, but the title of the song must mean something to the artiest. The song “Goodbye Pork-Pie Hat” makes feel kind of sad because the saxophone sounds so depressing to me, and when I listen to this song. I think about people smoking a cigarette at bar during the night time. The song remained of my dad because he love listening to the blues and jazz genre. The melody of the song’s really slow. The range of the song’s medium, and the movement of the song’s conjunct. I can hear two types of texture. The texture of the song starts with monophonic then change to polyphonic. I can heard it change mostly at 5:25. Honestly, I didn’t enjoy this song that much because
For thousands of years, marijuana has been used for a myriad of purposes ranging from medical use to recreational use. Although small steps are being for marijuana legalization across the country, there is still a long way to go. Some folks argue that marijuana is a gateway drug and impairs judgement, causing people to act recklessly. However, extensive studies have been conducted on the effects, risks, and benefits of marijuana, and have proven marijuana to be safer than alcohol and most prescription, over-the-counter, and illicit drugs. Despite the extensive research and evidence backing up marijuana 's mere harmlessness, it is still a hot button topic in America. Marijuana should be legal for both medical and recreational purposes throughout every state in the US. Legalizing marijuana will boost our economy, provide treatment for the sick, as well as a safer recreational drug than alcohol.
