work I will be focusing on is a piece called Grands dieux, du destin qui m’accable which is a very beautiful piece of music. The recording I listened to is sung by Sylvia Sass . Interesting to note, Alceste was not very well received in the years 1796 and 1804. However, the change came when the work was performed in various vernacular languages which people from other countries could understand such as Germany.

The correctional officers. I once had a correctional officer tell me, ‘we the biggest gang in New York State’”. If this is…

culture was more like something out of a fairy tale than it was reality. So, when my father announced that we would be leaving the country to go to Scotland, the home of his and my ancestors, my world began to expand at a rapid pace. This trip could not have been timed more perfectly. The summer of 2007 marked the end of fourth grade, my first year at Saint Mary Academy Bay View. After six years of crippling bullying at my old school, my parents had finally decided to send me to the all-girls…
