Music can grasp a strong bond between people and events. The influence of music in the 1930s was overwhelmingly impactful. With new genres coming in, new clubs opening, and new singers emerging, the 1930s was an uplifting time. People were shaping up their lives, and recovering from the horrid “Great Depression.” Music held a strong relationship with people as they were doing so, and helped them live everyday without sadness or sorrow. The jazz age was ending, but the music was still maturing.…

For me, this discourse was needed at that time so that I could gain a deeper appreciation…

Music also offers the musicians and composers an opportunity to express themselves through their work. Every musician gets his or her own opportunity to share his or her thoughts and feelings. And every listener of music can form their own thoughts and opinions about the songs they listen to. That is because no two songs are alike; or are they? Music has been around…

When you were telling us about this movie we were going to watch I was thinking to myself how much of music can actually be a form of protest and the movie looks old so how can it be any good. By the end of the movie I was very interested in realizing that music had a huge effect on the past as well as it does in the present time.
