Musical instruments that were used in this jazz concert were drums, pianist, bass, guitar, trumpet, saxophone, and trombones. I believe the dominant style of…

turnaround in the home key of Db. However, the bridge is highly unusual in its tonal center shifts. It has been described as "a bridge like no other". The melody very slowly and smooth. The pitch is very low, and timber is very classic, the bass and saxophone are very strong (“Body and Soul.” 2012). Meanwhile, the intensity is a whisper, and duration not very long. This is a great song. Therefore, “Body and Soul” is a famous song in the history of Jazz, and the performers also did very…

and dance like, I began to tap my foot to the three beat tempo. The band was full of woodwind instruments and one percussion instrument, but my favorite instrument was the saxophone. The sound of the instrument was a very conjunct melody and comforting to me. One part I really did adore that was in major key was when the saxophone had…

The mood that conveys the story is what draws readers in. The suspense, the passion, the way the book makes readers feel about the situation is helped with the mood. “ Whole pitful of oboes and trombones and saxophones and viols and cornets and piccolo, and low and high drums.”(The Great Gatsby, paragraph 2). This passage gives the feeling of excess, with the only the rich being able to afford the orchestra of such extravagance. “The cars from New York…”(The Great…

quotation, "Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that." Second, the music mainly comprises chatting, screaming, and saxophone.

Choir soon lead me to band, where I decided that I would play the alto saxophone. I loved the saxophone so much, that I stuck with it all the way to high school. Believe me when I say that the thought of marching band used to scare the living daylights out of me. Despite my fears, I came to love marching band, and that’s how I’m now…

measure 35. At measure 51, the harmonized trombones and bari sax begin a smooth-flowing bridge. When the trumpets take over the melody at measure 59, the bridge should build in volume and excitement to a peak at measure 65. After the bridge, the saxophones pick up the melody again…

think represent me a little bit. The first link is to the YouTube video of Kenny G's song "Songbird" which may be my favorite musical piece of all time. I have always been very connected with the sound of the saxophone for reasons unbeknown to me. Generally I prefer the alto or tenor saxophone but personally I think the saprano sax in here is absolutely marvelous. The composition is both smooth and rich and is, what I would consider, an extremely liberating piece of music for the heart and…

The padre would make his trek down to the bay and slip into its dark waters. This is when Miles’ trumpet comes in with a very familiar melody. One that mimics the saxophone. The padre would point up to the sky and say, “Everything turns on Jazz.” (This would be another topic of discussion: whether or not he says it in French) The camera would follow the direction of the padre’s finger and pan towards the night sky.…
