1969 in music

It has a strong and powerful mood. It starts off with scared emotions that grow into acceptance and then happiness. There are major high and low pitches in the piece of music. The ones that stand out the most are made by the pitch of the singers voice. The tone color of this song is brilliant. The same melody is played by the singer and then later an instrument this helps to highlight the melody. This song is sung by…

Gustav Holst, born in Cheltenham in September 1847, is still today considered to be one of the greatest music composers of all time.He didn’t start out as the great composer that we know and love. His path to success wasn’t the smoothest. Holst was born to Adolph von Holst and Clara Cox Lediard. His father was a professional pianist who practiced many hours a day leaving very few to his wife Clara and their children. Clara was a student of Adolph when they first met. She was also a talented…

backgrounds, we are finding that musical training can alter the nervous system to create a better learner and help offset this academic gap”. Often times, music is used for memorization. Teachers have set uninteresting things to music, such as the Preamble, to music so students will remember it. However, setting facts to music is not the only way music increases learning. In a study done by E. Glenn Schellenberg from the University of Toronto at Mississauga, discovered higher IQs in…

world. Because of this, the content included in curriculum is a widely debated subject. Everything from math, to physical education, to the arts is included in different curriculums. However, some disagree that the arts, such as dance, drama, and music, shouldn’t be included in the school system. These people propose that these are luxury topics, and not necessary for success in the real world. This concept might apply to some kids, but others find delight in the arts, and even wish to pursue a…

If I could summarize my career and day to day goals they would be to create, inspire, and achieve. In whatever circumstance that may be. As I reflect on the time that I have already spent at Western Kentucky University, my professors and peers have helped me to do exactly that. From both the encouragement and the discipline I have learned as a student, I have grown as a person and a dancer. I believe that the outcome of the dance program is not only the degree, but life lessons and knowledge to…

get too passionate about their art classes and completely neglect their core classes”, and, as a result, these “poor, unappreciated artists still cannot understand Shakespeare’s poetry”, since they “paint abstract nothingness [and] sing bad choral music” (Abramson). While Abramson believes in the abolition of arts programs entirely, others believe that the funding that is going to arts programs should be going into sports programs. It is seen that in most schools, “sports are the favored…

Music is a word that brings feeling of comfort to me and many other people. Music is something that can change your entire mood, week, how your day is going, etc. There are so many different kinds of music, and they appeal to many different kinds of people all over the world. As fans of these types of music and performers, it is our job to support the artists in their career. This being said, the reasons why a person would go to a concert are endless. Whether it be for the experience, the chance…

There were parts I dislike. What I dislike was probably the length of the songs were really short. Some were as short as a minute. And that leads me to the second thing I dislike was the sudden stops. Not giving any warning, when I was enjoying the music, the song just ended as if the devil stolen the songs away from me! One part of the performance that I really enjoyed and triggered thoughts in me was when Alexis Estrada perform the soloist section. When I was listening to her and the bright…

A person cannot fully grasp the full effect and intricateness of music without attending a live concert. On Tuesday, October 27 at the Sharp Concert Hall, I had the opportunity to attend a concert held by D. Frazier and Ricardo Coelho de Souza exhibits musical styles from Africa, South America, and parts of North America. All of the musical pieces contained several African retentions, a variety of instruments and other musical accompaniments such as vocalists and dancers. The concert as a…

at the San Jose State University Music Hall. The audience dressed casually. At the concert, I was a casual and referential listener. Like my previous assessment, I was a casual listener because I didn’t know the name of the song or artist, but I paid attention to the piece. Furthermore, I was a referential listener because I pictured some scenes while listening to the jazz music. When the trumpet played, it reminded me of a scene where a band is playing jazz music in the background at a bar and…
