Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (vs) Ludwig Van Beethoven During the classical time frame there were two amazing and talented composers, Mozart and Beethoven. These two men were well-known and extremely gifted. Although not both of them were born with these incredible abilities. There birth places were not the same nor was there child hood. How they operated as young men and into their late adulthood was quite the opposite. In comparison while both men were talented to no end, they were very different…

The Winter Concert was a marvelous showcase of music talent from the student body of St. John’s music society. There were in total twelve magnificent musical pieces and were all much appreciated by the people who were there. All the musical pieces were great, but the one that I enjoyed the most was the Claude Debussy which was presented by Kevin Won and Rex Chou who played the piano together. However, that does not take away from the other music works that were down. Furthermore, I felt all the…

The one composer that music today can thank for all of the brilliance and genius he has composed is none other than Ludwig van Beethoven. During the classical era, there was a new sense of subjectivity, proportion, order, and simplicity. It was a time of the Enlightenment, a time of reason and the experimentation with trial and error. All men were created equal, and were given a voice on matters that needed to be handled. This was also the time of the Industrial Revolution, where new machines…

The San Antonio College Guitar Studio Recital took place October 20, 2014. I first arrived at the McAllister Auditorium (1300 San Pedro Ave. S.A. TX 78212) at 7 PM.

It is a marvelous experience. At the entrance I could appreciate an organ, which has had an important history in classical music, especially…

Born on January 27 1756 to Leopold Mozart and Anna Maria, née Pertl in Salzburg, which is the…

He believes this due to the fact that it is possible for the state to be a coercive agent, which inhibits the most basic of human rights: freedom. Because of this, he does not think the…

In class, I learned about the theories of human development which played a great role in helping me better understand the…
