Cymbal

The first song was called Joy Ride. It started of very strong with crashing cymbals and a loud drum. It was very powerful and had really good harmony all together. The second song was called Regrets and Resolutions. It started off very peaceful and quiet with flutes and clarinets. Then the horns and xylophone were added in. The flute soloist would play one song and the rest of the instruments were playing a different one, it actually sounded really cool. At one point it all the sudden got really…

The song “Flamenco Sketches” by the Miles Davis Sextet has the cool jazz sound with the modal jazz style. The song has a light and soft sound with simple melodic improvisations. A traditional rhythm section maintains a steady rhythm throughout the song, but this rhythm section uses countermelodies to add colorations during the improvisations. The pianist is constantly playing a soft melody underneath the improvisations and sometimes mirroring the melody played by the improviser. The bassist…

few songs while they played. Every songs will be listed below, including style with a brief description. The first song that they performed was “Alice in Wonderland,” it was executed in a jazz roll style, 4 bars blues. One can hear the sound of cymbals with a little bass drum every now and then which gives the song a rock and roll feeling to it; it was an electronic sound coming out of the keyboard. It wasn’t too overwhelming because the guitar and keyboard sound accompanying it gave it that…

The scene that I have composed a song to appears in ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2’. The scene takes place after (SPOILER ALERT!) Severus Snape is killed and Harry collects some of his memories into a vial. Harry then pours Snape’s memories into a pensieve to re-watch them. Snape’s memories take us back to his childhood and when he first meets Harry’s mother, Lily. The full scene is absolutely heart-wrenching as you watch Snape’s feelings grow for a girl that does not reciprocate…

There are many different voices in this…

MHO Essay It would be incorrect to say that the classical composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart lived a particularly long life, but in the short span of 35 years, he made an enormous impact on music, both classical and non-classical and has left his mark, not only on music but on history. In his lifetime, Mozart composed over 600 works, which included string quartets, concert arias, piano sonatas and operas. Mozart also composed many piano concertos, and many of them were, and still is extremely…

In the front line, there was the piano, guitar, both saxes, and another guitar. In the back line, it was the bass and the drums. Before the performance began the drums changed out the crash cymbal. I wasn’t aware that there were different types of crash cymbals you could use. This band was different from the others because there were both men and woman playing. In the other bands, there were only men. This band was also different from the other jazz concert I attended because…

Albert Camus is widely recognized as one of the most influential writers in the field of existentialism. Despite his personal distaste for being labeled as such, many of his literary works contain elements that strongly resemble the ideas held by the existentialist school of thought. In Camus’ novel The Stranger, the main character, Meursault, kills an Arab on the beach due to the perceived notion that the Arab was an agent of the sun sent to harm him; the author conveys this absurdity by…

marching band, I take Spanish 4 Honors. My favorite class is band and my least favorite is Engineering.

Last year I used the money for many things. I was…
