way. The blue outfit was not the reason why people were staring, I should know because that eight year old was me and that night is one I love to remember. “Wake up, Cindy! If you don’t start getting ready now we’re going to be late for dress rehearsal.” my mother’s strong voice called from my bedroom door. The previous night was restless, I had tossed and turned and was now running on very little sleep. However, the excitement coursing through me was going to be enough to get me through the…
This is a story about a morbidly humorous 2-minute song my friends and I haphazardly threw together whilst semi-drunk on Budweiser. This is a story about how that same haphazardly thrown-together song evolved from Budweiser consumption in a dumpy rehearsal space to a shoddy demo to a widely-distributed pro-produced track to its current dormant state of “always dying but never dead.”…
After graduation from University of Munich, he went to Vienna to studied Conducting and Music Theory with Gustav Mahler, who was a music director of the Vienna Royal Opera Theatre whereby he worked as a rehearsal pianist and assistant conductor of Mahler. When he was 24 years old in 1906, he took a post as principle conductor of Geneva Grand Theatre under Mahler’s recommendation. His career as conductor had persuaded him to many major cities of Europe in…
Essentially, the elaboration rehearsal of encoding information leads to better recall, while maintenance rehearsal of repetition only allows for short term retention of information. The Levels of Processing model is split into three parts, Structural and Phonemic being shallow levels of processing only involving the short…
Johannes Brahms’ Clarinet Quintet in B minor, opus 115, was composed in Bad Ischl during the summer of 1891. It should be noted that in 1890, Brahms concluded that he would no longer compose. In the same summer of completing the Quintet, Brahms composes his Clarinet Trio, opus 114. These two works for clarinet would be his last contributions to chamber music. Prior to the Brahms Quintet, other works written for chamber clarinet included the opus 34 of Weber, opus 107 by Anton Reicha and the A…
have confidence in myself and the talents that I have. Dance has undoubtedly given me the dedication and commitment that I have today. I have danced for the past thirteen years and would not trade that time for the world. From the long five hour rehearsals on Sundays to quick thirty minute practices to fix a lineup, dance takes commitment. It has taught…
this all the time at dance but I still had fun… most of the time. I had been a dancer as long as I could remember and so had my sister. Dance was a lot to take on with rehearsal everyday and competitions every other weekend in the winter. All my friends were cheerleaders and they were together every Saturday when I was at rehearsal. But through my experience I learned to follow my heart and do what I wanted to do. It was the beginning of August and it was the beginning of company auditions.…
monthly basis; this forced us to continue some of the projects we had at the time but without the venue we had projected. In addition, we got dramatic cuts from our funders. Therefore, we spent lots of money on renting out other performing and rehearsal spaces with very little income, causing a serious deficit in our bank accounts and credit cards. To-date we are gradually…
let’s start with the beginning of the song, where the individual seems to be reminiscing. “First thing we'd climb a tree and maybe then we'd talk Or sit silently and listen to our thoughts With illusions of someday casting a golden light No dress rehearsal, this is our life And that's where the hornet stung me And I had a feverish dream With revenge and doubt Tonight we smoke them out”…
show everybody that the horrible gene doesn’t run in the family. The setting takes place in the quiet town Lobo’s Nod. In the town he goes to school, sleep, does homework, and goes to play rehearsal everyday like a normal kid in high school. This affects the characters because if he didn’t do to play rehearsal everyday then he wouldn’t get half of the information he had to solve the crime. I know this because the story states,…
