The song begins with a guitar and some form of a shaker instrument. After a few seconds, a drum joins in and keeps the instruments in harmony while providing the beat for the other instruments to follow. The late addition of the drums was definitely unexpected and is the reason why the dynamics change. The chorus changes the texture of the song when certain words are sung by Johnson. Some of the words that create…

practiced at E.B Stillman and I am nervous. The stage is so big and I get to sit up there with all the other band players. I play the flute, yes I am a flutist.

Because of there are only three elements, the stereo image builds on how wide and narrow the sound is instead of placing to the right or left location. However, I feel that the acoustic guitar is a little off to the left, and I hope that is not the problem of my hearing.

Under the Sun”. “Heaven is Under the Sun” had such a great piano melody. Michael Cantillon is very talented pianist because he was able to keep the melody going throughout the song.

It added an extra sound that the song differently needed. Mike Dryer kept on playing this very nice baseline through the song very nice clean and sharp not…

The roller coaster slowly went up the tracks and then dropped down really fast. I had nightmares about that ride for weeks. Another ride I rode on called the “Flying Devil” had my heart racing too.

This shows us that there is an absence of movement and sound around Margot and where the rest of the children are loud, restless and moving constantly Margot does the opposite to all of them by saying nothing and standing still and away from everyone from everyone else. Margot is different from the children in her stillness and isolation and Ray Bradbury has shown this to us by creating a…
