Accompaniment

understand and the viewer can see that the player who is headbutted said something to the player doing the headbutting, which changes the way the viewer sees the players. Overall, my interpretation of the poem’s tone did differ without the video accompaniment, but the message about the harmfulness of years of racism…

The accompaniment does a great job of mirroring the dialogue, as well as the setting. In Luhrmann’s more modern version, contemporary piano is used, while in Zeffirelli's version, a medieval pan flute is used. Both of these adaptations made the music more conducive…

The way that I feel that this piece is compared to other keyboard works what we have listen to was that you can tell that mostly its homophonic like most of the other piano pieces that I have heard. You can hear a soft dynamic mood like Beethoven work. You can hear how freely it feels by the sounds so you know they put their soul into it and was being creative. What I think is different is that the piano piece is in a mazurka with a rubato unlike the other pieces. This piano piece also is…

afternoon recital was held in the same gallery room as my first experience. The rooms plain walls were adorned with art of varying mediums, in the front of the hall sat a white grand piano on parquet floors, played by Professor Gail Long, the only accompaniment for the day’s performers. This recital difference from the first event was rather than professors performing for the students it was students playing for a group of 50 of their peers and professors. The first student to take center…

Interest in Iberian Andalusi tradition began with the publication of Antigüedades árabes…

using the vitaphone. Even though the film only had two senses where the characters actually spoke and the rest of the dialogue was presented through the caption cards, or inter-tiles which was a common standard in silent movies with the music accompaniment, this was a big event for 1927. The vitaphone sound was on disc format which was developed…

I learned many things in experiencing three performances. I attended the King Stephen Op.117 by Beethoven, Piano Concerto No.1 in C major, Op.15 by Beethoven, and lastly The Firebird by Stravinsky. These three pieces of music have many different and similar characteristic. In this paper I’m going to discuss how the different instruments are used to make different tones. How these different tones can create different images and how these images can create different emotions and tensions. My…

instruments and timbres all play an important role in many baroque compositions. Then we have monody and the advent of the basso continuo. In previous musical eras, a piece of music tended to consist of a single melody, perhaps with an improvised accompaniment, or several melodies played simultaneously. Basso Continuo was a method of musical notation in which the melody and bass line are written out and the harmonic filler indicated in a type of shorthand. Monody was a style of accompanied solo…

was not a practical man, he created this music in hope of creating a new African-American classical music. His desire was to make ragtime music respectable. The first time the music was heard, was by the playing of a banjo, and later piano for accompaniment, and then piano solos. Joplin is known for his songs “The Entertainer” “The Maple Leaf Rag” and “Original Rags”. The Entertainer was one of the classics of ragtime, it was used as the theme music for the 1973 Oscar-winning film The Sting. The…
