Comparing Visual, Auditory, And Kinesthetic

Decent Essays
Storytelling is the conveying of events in words, sound and/or images. Telling a story can be done in many different ways. Not only can a story be told in more than one way, some people retain learning in different ways than others as well. The three different ways of learning are: Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic. Music is used to convey stories to the people who retain learning in the audio form. Most people have a learning form that they prefer the best over others. Rarely will there be someone that doesn’t have a learning form preference. For example, Suicidal Thoughts by Biggie Smalls depicts the suicidal life he has been dealing with through his lyrics. Fortunately, with the enjoyably sounding beat played in the background of the song,

    In Pueblo culture, the way of teaching is to tell stories; all information, scientific, technological, historical, religious, is put into narrative form (“An Interview with Leslie Marmon Silko”). These stories create many connections between the listener and story teller, for it creates a structure of stories within stories (Silko 468). The perspective on narrative represents an important contribution of Pueblo culture to the English language, for it allows students to recollect information. Silko also reminds her audience that there is no distinction between the different types of genres of stories; whether it be myth, legend, historical, sacred, or gossip it is not functional to deliver the Pueblo experience of storytelling (471). Silko includes narrative form to establish a different perspective of writing through the influences of Pueblo oral…

    Through many examples of music from many different backgrounds, I have come to realize and appreciate the diversity present in the world of music. When I was asked to select one piece of music to analyze, I was faced with a difficult decision. It was challenging for me to decide on one piece of music that I could analyze given the abundance of music. After many countless hours of searching for one piece of music that I could focus my time on to analyze, I selected a piece named October by Eric Whitacre. Eric Whitacre is a Grammy-winning American composer and conductor.…

    Music can be used to evoke underlying emotions and can help people to express themselves with ease. It fuels the mind and thus it fuels feelings. Music is universal in the sense that there are no boundaries to understand it. It transcends the frontiers of communication as people can speak and tell stories to others, even though they do not speak the same language. When listening to music, everyone can understand it and feel something if they open themselves up.…

    “Poetry, once a preeminent form of entertainment, has long since receded to the far, dusty corners of popular culture” (Giggs). Music and poetry have forever been connected. They follow the same poetic devices because music is based on poetry. Over time, poetry has become a lesser-appreciated art form because of the popularity of music. Music has evolved, while poetry has been fairly stagnant for a long time.…

    Spirituality in Music Music is powerful and holds grave importance for culture and daily life. Creators of such art express all forms of human emotions, from lived realities to imaginary, and futuristic ideals. More than often, people are able to create their best work when they have experienced much. Looking at Dubois’s sorrow songs section in The Souls of Black Folk, and songs from Solange’s A Seat at The Table album and Chance the Rapper’s Coloring Book mixtape, the power of music with meaningful lyrics makes it known to listeners, that spiritual/emotional content in music is a gift. Also that healing is a permanent component of creating, singing and listening to it.…

    Music. It’s just a five letter word that may only mean to people, the sounds that come out of the radio or what they have downloaded into their iPods or even the background to an amazing new dance craze, but it means so much more than that to me. Songwriters in my opinion take the time to pull out that pen and paper to write down what they know, experienced, and felt to make into a melody so that others can relate to what they have and know that there is someone out there just like them. When you hear a song what you hear is the instrument and the lyrical components that make up that song and each part is crucial to understanding what an artist is trying to tell as your listeners. Such as when I hear a song that gives me chills I wonder how it is the creator did come up with this wonderful composition and find my head following the rhythm of the beat.…

    The piece of music that I’ve selected to write about is a solo piano composition named Für Elise that was composed by Ludwig van Beethoven. Für Elise literally translates to “For Elise”, a title that has raised many questions and few answers. The main reason that I’ve chosen this piece of music to write about is because it is a piece that is very well known, even to people who are not involved in music, and “is a common catalyst and inspiration that causes many people to become interested in the piano.” Für Elise is a revolutionary piece of music, and to support this claim we must first examine the fundamental elements in the piece as well as the emotion and visualization that makes this piece so impacting.…

    Music has been a part of people’s everyday lives for so long. It even evolved in a lot of different ways, then again, not everyone knows how much it actually affects the human mind and body. It doesn’t just make us sing along when we hear some of our favorite songs, it doesn’t just make us dance and groove, but it also has amazing scientific and medical effects. According to neuroscientist and author of This Is Your Brain on Music, Dr. Daniel J. Levitin, when people try to understand what exactly is the meaning of music and where it actually came from, people could have a better understanding on how it affects their motive, desires, memories, fears, and even communication. “Is music listening more along the lines of eating when you’re hungry, and thus satisfying an urge?…

    For centuries, people have found some sort of comfort/aid in the various genres and sounds of music. Although, with these different genres of music, people with different backgrounds can listen to something they can relate to, or maybe something that makes them feel good. Throughout the years, music has changed for both the good and not-so good, from bringing kids closer to God, to including more vulgarity. Those are just some of the ways music has changed within popular culture. Music is also very influential in the minds and behaviors of children and teens, by giving them a sense of inspiration and wonder.…
