up their rowboat right before a sunrise. At the very beginning of the movement is a calm, beautiful section, which is meant to depict how peaceful, calming, and relaxing it is to float on water while basking in the sounds of the early morning: with birds, insects, and stillness. After floating for a couple minutes, the couple begins rowing the boat forward, and in the piece, you can hear the water rhythmically lapping against the side of the boat. This is symbolized by that at the second beat of…
occurred. The first is that as low tide gets closer, the birds become further away and thus harder to see. This variable may have been influenced by the amount of visibility and thus a more powerful spotting scope is recommended for future studies.

one of the very few players that changed the game. When he played he electrified the court giving him sense power making him seem like he can do anything on the court. Dr.j went up against some of the Nba’s greatest players like Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, and Clyde Drexler and embarrassed them by dunking on them because of his ridiculous athleticism. While he was playing there was no one that could guard him. He was an unstoppable force that dominated almost every aspect of basketball. The…
