showed exceptional skills on the piano from Kevin Won and Rex Chou. Furthermore, there was quite a few people there for a string of wonderful pieces of music. Additionally, there were unique pieces such as an original composition which was played with guitars which no other performances used. Another was the Tristette by Chopin which was performed by Linda Lin (piano) and Cindy Le (violin) and the violin emphasized the sadistic tone that Chopin wanted when written. The finale was more like a…

writing music. When I was little my mom always tried to push me to learn how to play instruments. She put me in choir and signed me up for recorder lessons so I could learn how to read music at an early age. At home, she would let me pluck away at her guitar and look through her books of lyrics she wrote. She told me how music helped her cope with her job and her life in general. When I was six years old, I started teaching…

moved to the USA. They performed at the Monterey Pop Festival where critics confirmed his breathtaking stage presence and experimental sound. He pulled all the tricks from the book to impress everyone there. In the conclusion of the show he lit his guitar on fire. In 1967 he performed and won over crowds at the International Pop Festival with his performance of “Wild Thing.” He was literally an overnight sensation in the US.

in the U.S.A and England and was soon followed up by ‘’Purple Haze’’ and ‘’The Winds Cries Mary’’. While on tour Hendrix amazed audiences with his guitar playing, flashy clothing, and the way he played on stage and later on he gained the fame of many American music fans at the Monterey pop festival and in which in the end of the festival he lit his guitar on fire.

The philosophy that I have chosen is the progressivism philosophy. This my emerging philosophy of teaching because progressivism is what I can use to teach my music students in the best way possible. Progressivism coincides with how a music teacher’s thinking should be and how it effectively teaches music to students. Progressivism will be the best philosophy to use in the music classroom and focuses on the skills that students need to learn when learning music. With the progressivism…

Bristol, Tennessee in hopes of finding “hillbilly” musicians. His scouting was successful, and he signed record deals with the Carter Family from Virginia and Jimmie Rodgers of North Carolina. In their recordings, instruments such as the acoustic guitar, mandolin, autoharp, fiddle, and banjo were present, however, Jimmie Rodgers used a stunning vocal technique called yodelling as well. The Carter Family and Jimmie became the first stars of country music, and composed hit songs later that year…

Landmarks, both in a physical and emotional sense, are considered to be the most integral monuments and events that build a society or human experience. Bob Dylan’s collection of Landmark Albums, for instance, is considered the most significant works of art that best represent his career. Each of the Landmark Albums is, in its own right, a destination on the highway of Dylan’s career; however, as the saying goes, “it is not in the destination, but in the journey.” If said logic were applied to…

out on the affairs and may not find their true love. The narrator then leaves as the lover as the song beings to fade out. It sounds as if the most dominate instruments throughout “Little Red Corvette” are the drums, keyboard, and bass guitar. The electric guitar is heard in the piece, but does not have a dominate part until about halfway through the song. Even though the beat remains more or less steady, Prince’s vocals seems to occasionally change pace between the verses and chorus. (Almost…

My two favorite bands during my teenage years until today have persistently been Muse, and Coheed and Cambria. These two bands have various similarities but are markedly different from one another. The two band’s differing origins, influences, philosophies, and histories have drastically impacted their musical styles and popular success, while their similarities have been critical in redefining progressive and alternative rock. Their unique styles prompted much of my own musical growth and…

in getting a career out of vivisections on the stage. To begin with: Kid Rock's concert was high energy -- he was moving around a lot, and the performance was very professional. The band was included of only best players. There was some fantastic guitar playing. For example, Stefanie Eulinberg banged away at her drums. A Kid Rock performance is one of the most intense things you might ever do. The probing thing is that, despite that I, and many other personally don’t think Kid Rock is very good…
