Instrument- .Glass bottle xylophone My experiment is about making a Glass bottle xylophone that plays six notes What is sound and how does it travel? Sound is a sort of energy made by vibrations (Jane. E, 2016). When any object vibrates, it causes movement in the air particles (Jane. E, 2016).

Looking around the room I see many lockers ranging from small to large depending what is inside them. Each locker is completed with a metal door that resembles a jail door. The room has three short floor…

under conductor Eugene Goossens. The style of music is Nationalistic music. The melody played by the trumpet and other brass instrument played harmony. The rhythm was sharply detached and it has a steady, slow beat, but at the middle it speeds up and shifts into a smooth.

woodwinds to hard-pressed portions that are dominated by the string group. This movement ends with a striking build-up of woodwind melodies and soft strings into a climatic burst of energy from the strings and percussions. The second movement is much like the first in terms of its introduction. Instruments such as the flute compliment the piece whenever played with the ensemble, and along with the oboe in softer portions of the movement. change from the orchestra playing together to the flutes…
