Music is a crucial part of life. Conducting, composing, or listening to music are things most people do everyday. Music exposes feelings and portrays a part of history. Listeners enjoy different genres. They may like music of different tempos or dynamics. Many composers may only focus on one instrument to perfect. Regardless of taste or need for music, it is all important. Two of the important pieces learned in the beginning music class are Symphony No. 5 in C minor by Beethoven and Dido and Aeneas

BEETHOVEN CONCERTS The “Pastorale” Symphony and the “Emperor” Piano Concerto, one named by Ludwig van Beethoven and the other by a friend, are splendid examples of Beethoven’s musical acumen.

“Nooooo!” I screamed as I felt like my heart ripping out of my chest. It was beating at seventy-thousand beats per minute and I felt like I was frozen still like an iceberg in freezing water. The day had come where I was no longer needed and the government was ready to get rid of me. I heard the police sirens closening to my home. “Here take this” my mom told me as she handed me the government issued gun for my training.

Yet despite all of these terrible ailments, he was able to compose music that is considered some of the best ever composed, and that is still appreciated today.
