Recital

For my first concert I saw a recital performed by Hilary Hahn a violinist. She was accompanied by Robert Levin, a pianist. The two musicians played five compositions by famous composers such as; Bach, Antón Garcia Abril, Mozart, Hans Peter Türk, and Schubert. For this being my first concert review, I was astounded by the recital’s perfection and beauty. I knew going into this concert that it would be amazing, but it was much more than I could of hoped for. I will be reviewing my favorite pieces;…

“Mom, I’m thinking about learning how to play an instrument,” I admitted as she walked down the stairs. “But I’m not really sure on which instrument to play, the piano or the guitar?” Both the sound of the piano and guitar highly appealed to me. However, I knew that I would only have time to choose one of the two instruments for now. The choice took what felt like to be a millennium to decide. “Oh, that sounds fun!” my mom replied. “Which instrument did you want to play, Kevin?” “Well, I was…

“Racist.” My eyes darted over to my friend—comfortably sprawled out on a chair next to me, his feet propped up on the coffee table. “Racist.” He stated once again a few minutes later, grabbing a handful of chips and crunching on them loudly. I sat on the couch at a youth leader’s house, watching the movie The Blind Side a group of friends. Deandre, whose blunt comments drew my attention, was the only African-American among us. We watched the movie and he continued to point out many racial…

This model is an addition of the Canadian Model of Occupational Performance (CMOP), focusing on engagement as a primary aspect of occupational performance. CMOP-E was published in 2007 and developed by Helene Polatajoko, Elizabeth Townsend and Janet Craik. (McColl et al., 2015). The ideas within this theoretical model stem from the ideas associated in the Person-Environment-Occupation (PEO) model. (McColl et al., 2015). The core of this model is the importance and value spirituality has on…

black, already set up, and just finishing tuning there was a shocking amount of color, styles of dress, and a flurry of movement. My experience from the last concert lead me to believe that a recital would be just as formal and put together as a symphony performance. In fact, the entire atmosphere of the recital hall was more relaxed than that of an orchestra concert. The overall atmosphere spoke to the type of music presented. As stated before the concert was not what I was expecting. I…

The first response to the public service when there is an accident, deterring, and as well as to stop any further future crime incidents.

the music and how it sounded to their interpretation. The dancing definitely made the live performance much better than any recording online ever would be. I wish more recitals would come with professionals who are truly loving what they are doing. The historical significance of the piece, as told by the artists during the recital, is that “Histoire Du Tango” is one of the most famous pieces by Astor Piazolla. It tells a story of the history of tango from the beginning to modern time with modern…

The short story Harrison Bergeron Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. is about a dystopian society in America were inequality has been diminished. The short emphasizes the idea of everyone is created equal. The setting in the story and the film 2081 by Chandler Tuttle is vague since its, George and Hazel Bergeron 's living room where they are watching TV. The year is 2081 the golden age of equality, possibly in the evening. The setting is impactful in the story because it represents the result of the equality…
