Musical composition

Furthermore, instrumentation allows for the musical composition to produce a melody by arranging the piece in a certain way with each individual instrument in mind; this includes: brass, woodwinds, and percussion instruments, or instruments that are used while walking. Essentially, the instruments are individually selected and placed in different combinations for performances. Because marching bands are working with several different types of instruments, instrumentation is an important consideration when developing the musical composition. The artistic works of the Marching Chiefs are sophisticated, well-rehearsed and easily noted when watching one hundred or more members march and produce a melody with harmony while using a variety of instruments.…

The musical composition in the cinema Entr'acte Symphonique de "Relache" (1924) and song Socrates (1919) both produced by Eric Satie illustrates the distinct musical approaches that he used in his compositions. Interestingly, I have noticed Satie used different musical elements to distinguish different sections both the cinema and the musical composition. My analysis of his approaches in these two pieces of work is critical in understanding the sensibilities of the works and understanding of…

Scholarly reception in music looks at developing dialog and discussion among scholars who are engaged in philosophical and practical analyses of musical experiences. Unlike other philosophical discourses, the difficulty of speaking about music is the difficulty of speaking about a nonrepresentational art form. Music has been discussed in terms of the hard sciences, such as pitch, rhythm, and form, but music has been at best, ignored with respect to philosophical thought. Deleuze is one…

Hildegard was a german composer, poet, musician, natural historian, and playwright. She was recognized by the twelfth-century Church as a visionary. She possessed a divine gift for perceiving images and messages directly from God. Hildegard documented her ornate visions in numerous important works, including the Scivias (c. 1151) and the Liber divinorum operum (c. 1170). She is also well-known for her medical and scientific writings and musical compositions. Famed for her prophesies and wisdom,…

corresponding to five dynamic features to create either animations or musical clips that expressed different emotions. (Source: National Academy of Sciences 2013) One half of the participants in the study, from both Cambodia and America, could use the slider bars…

services were held, the sick, poor, elderly, and orphaned could take refuge. Here, within the nunneries and convents men and women alike were taught to read and write literature and music. Unfortunately the knowledge was screened by the Church hierarchy, and many were only taught to read works provided to them. Only a fortunate few were granted the privilege to study music and music composition; Hildegard of Bingen was one of these women. Hailing from Bermershein, Germany, Hildegard was born…

Being in a band has let me see some great compositions by Tyler Grant, and Robert Smith. The amount of joy I, and my friends have gotten from playing this music has inspired me to want to compose music. This experience highlights that composing music brings many people joy, helps, and inspires them. As a music composer, one could compose for animation, video games, or movies, to have fun composing while affecting humanity. One profession that involves composing music is an animation score…

The Opera of Existence In music, the pitches and the pauses in a composition contribute to the piece as much as, or even more than, the lyrics themselves. In non-lyrical music, each note must be deliberate, played in a certain way to achieve the desired effect. The crescendos cause feelings of power and anticipation, while decrescendos gather the attention of the audience. Each note adds to the tone of the piece, but silence similarly asserts itself in its demand to be felt. In Gymnopédie…

the two previously stated methods of implied depth, “the effect of overlap is strengthened by diminishing size, which gives a sense of increasing distance between each of the shapes,” or in this case figures within the work (45). We can see this method being used when observing the way the figures in the painting are spaced out, overlapped, and made smaller or larger depending on their location on the canvas. The visual elements of Paolo’s work are clearly seen; however, it might take a more…

After Rustin completed his creation of Playing fetch with Nash, I looked at this artwork objectively and noticed many different details he included in his artwork. At first glance, a viewer can see that it was created using markers with the use of primary, secondary, and neutral colors. I also see that Rustin drew a person to represent himself, he gave himself two arms and two legs and glasses. There is also a dog, however if he would have not told me what animal it was, it could possibly be…
