purpose of your first draft. In your proposal, you mentioned that you wanted to explore "how music and language coincide with one another [and] how music was and is used as a tool to communicate social issues and social changes." You also wanted to “show how music has been used as a form of language in worship, was, education medical etc.” In your first draft, you explained the purpose of African American music and described how and why this purpose changed throughout the centuries. Your first…

over to Rosie's trailer as he is "... terrified. Terrified of losing her" and blurts out that he loves her. Another time he was confronted with conflict in his teenage years was when he joins the Rock and Roll band even though he thought it was "Music to shit by". After Rough Stuff won the Battle of Sounds Paul feels "strangely empty, deflated". During his last day in Darwin Paul faces a significant conflict. Staying and listening to Keller's tale vs going off and spending time with his…

When you hear the word band when related to music, what do you think of? Is it a small group of friends playing in a garage, or a huge group of people putting on a concert at school? Merriam Webster defines a band as “a group of persons, animals, or things; especially: a group of musicians organized for ensemble playing.” To finish out the semester I went to one last concert, the SIUE Wind Symphony and Concert Band. The opening piece of the night Where Never Lark or Eagle Flew by James Curnow.…

Since my ending of my last production I was eager to start our new musical. One evening after school musical practice finally started. Exhausted after class, I grudgingly sat down around the piano while I waited to the music to start and practice to begin. At 3 o’clock we began to learn our required songs for our audition. Our school play is the Wizard of Oz and I decided that I wanted to audition for Dorothy, the Tin Man, and the Good Witch. I was fully expecting Dorothy’s notes in her song…

Wait, what? When you compose music, you tell a story, not just say it. There’s meaning. That’s why I think composing music would be the perfect career for me. It’s diverse, satisfying, and worry free. Composing music is like making art; anyone who wants to, can accomplish it. The music industry is based all around the world so location is never a problem. That’s what makes composing music so diverse. Anyone can do it! Even the singer/songwriter Ed Sheeran says, “Music is a powerful tool in…

Music has always been a part of my life. The extensive record collection between my father and grandfather. The music teacher grandmother. The composer cousin who lived in L.A., New Orleans, and Nashville who married an operatic vocalist and toured the country with his jazz group who now directs a middle school band. Then, there is the other cousin who was in high school acapella choir and a guitarist and a bassist and a drummer and a bagpipe player. I went to church children’s choir practice…

the first points of the chapter stresses how listening is subjective. Especially in music, listening to a certain kind of music can have an effect on you posture, mood, and emotion. This change can be small and unnoticeable or very noticeable. On my car rides, my mood is boosted if I blast some country music and roll the windows down. When I need to crack down on papers or studying I put on some classical yoga music from Pandora. Campbell and Doman…

both discusses how music educators need to make several changes to the program to provide students with more opportunities to be creative as well as learn lifelong skills which they could apply to their lives. Kratus points out the fact that making small changes to the music education program in schools can have a huge impact. I believe that it is risky to step up as music teachers and most of the time music teachers rarely get opportunities to step in or lead the program since music is not part…

Some Phun Intended The first time you hear music, it is not even a sound. It is a feeling, a sensation one got from inside their mother. Whether it was Willie Nelson, Beethoven, or Slim Shady, the rhythm felt as such a small person stays with us. Later, we listened to whatever television show was playing in the room we were in; or the music our parents played for us in the car on the way to school. It is not until we are about eleven or twelve that we truly discover what we enjoy listening to.…

trumpet greatly changed the future of the instrument and the music. The instrument was revolutionize, as the trumpet evolved from a valveless horn, that only played certain pitches, to a Baroque trumpet that had key holes to help tune the same pitches, to the keyed trumpet. Even though the keyed trumpet itself was deemed a failure at the time, this lead to a change that greatly influenced the modern day horn and the music.. The music greatly change thanks to the keyed trumpet’s unique…
