Except for the Milwaukee Ballet school. “Alice, this isn’t a recital, your hair is fine” my mother said as she drove me to my new studio. I was sitting in the passenger seat yanking my hair back into a smooth bun, desperately trying to settle the wisps of hair that flew off the crown of my head. “I just want the…

    with a boot and crutches. Two years of no dance, no running, jumping, skipping, and barely being able to walk- two years where I had to teach myself how to function without the full use of my legs. I missed drivers’ education, Easter egg hunting, recitals and performances. But it opened my eyes-opened them to what life was like to thousands who couldn’t walk. My classmates told me how lucky I was to “get” to skip gym, I thought how wonderful it would be to run. I saw how much we took our bodies…

    On Monday, November 13th, 2017 I attended the Steel Band concert in the Fine Arts Recital Hall directed by Dr. Scott Harris. I formally had never attended a concert of this kind. When I thought of a steel band before I would think of just tubas and trumpets, I never thought it would be a band of Caribbean type steel drums.

Conclusively the timbre is very visual in a way. The tone-color of the mid high pitch gives off a mellow , grayish blue feel thats follows through the piece. The…
