Snare drum

why she talks. This was teaching the students respect for her. Also, teaching when the authoritative figure is talking you do not interrupt. One of the procedures she used during the activity was the way she interchanged people on the small drums to the big drums. She made the students form the back come forward and take the spot of someone on the small ball instead of just saying swap. The swapping was organized in that no no one was running around bumping into…

Cultures have been created on the basis of rhythm, integrating ritual, dance, song and music into every aspect of community life. A review of the literature on the therapeutic benefits of music reveals that vibrotactile rhythm playing, the drum circle, is one activity that would be suitable for implementation with diverse groups within long-term care facilities. In particular, preliminary research indicates that rhythm applications are very successful with persons who are severely regressed…

From the beginning of the movie where Fletcher watches Andrew in practice and invites him to join his jazz band to the end where Andrew plays one of the best solos of Whiplash, the film is focused mainly on the confrontation between a driven student and a demanding perfectionist instructor, who both share the same dream but have different ways of achieving it. Terence Fletcher doesn’t hesitate to use his own technique of racial, religious, and gay slurs, throwing chairs, and playing degrading…

200 people. The seats were arranged in a way that created an atmosphere that felt much like an amphitheater. The stage is set with 3 small sections of instruments that all face the audience. One section is the Conga drums, the second is the piano and cello, and the last section is the drum set. The stage and the performers are set to a black backdrop that provides the background. The most important aspect from the audiences view is that the lights are only on the stage, providing all the…

So I continued to scroll through the menu until I saw a program playing called “Drumline”. I knew what the word drum was because I saw a picture of one on the alphabet line that my teacher had on the wall, so I went right ahead and clicked it. It turned out to be a movie and not a TV show, I found that kind of cool because the only channels that we had available…

had ever went through. We needed each other. We cried for each other. We were there for each other. I have never learned more about being a family until that tragic event. While his memory still lives on with us, we miss him every time we play our drums. Through my art, I have accomplished many feats. I have taken my rehearsed pieces to OMEA contest twice, once as an ensemble and the second time was a solo number. Both times, I received the highest grade that could be given in the class. At my…

“Come in, come in.” The rumbling of the drums came to a stop. His heart and soul still played to the beat of the music, showed me the artist inside. His bold white sneakers shining through the cracks of the drum set caught my eyes as he walked over to shake my hand. The rough, scratchy feeling as our hands meet in mid air transcripting his personal stories straight into the lines on my hand, one by one. As we sit down in the fluffy chairs surrounding the drum set, my nerves calmed into a…

and a more real sound. Below will highlight some of my main mixing processes. Drums Before mixing my drums together as one, I put EQ on all the track the aim was to cut out any frequencies I wouldn’t be needing and boost the ones I would. An example of this would be my bass drum. I cut out any sound above 250Hz as I wouldn’t be using this. I then boosted at around 100Hz because this is where I wanted the kick drum…

On the night of Saturday, November 19, I attended the North Carolina Theatre production of Monty Python’s Spamalot. This was part of a five-night run at Raleigh Memorial Auditorium, part of the Duke Energy Center complex. It was a cold, brisk night, and the warm glow from Memorial Auditorium beckoned to me to enter. The auditorium inside in the biggest concert space I have been to not called an arena. Walking in at the second floor, the auditorium spilled out in front of me, welcoming, with…
