The music she writes reflects her background, career and other relevant information. Taylor Swift’s background is an important part of who she is, knowing these…

protects the nasal passage by directing a portion of the substance to the mouth. The uvula hangs fro the end of the soft palate, in humans. The placement of the velum all depends on what sound you as a singer. If you have a high, lifted velum your sound will be more legit or classical.

Avoiding Social Settings As a result of all the symptoms discussed above, it is not uncommon for those with hearing loss to want to avoid social settings. More often than not, those that suffer…

This class was held in a large choral rehearsal room at Butler University in Indianapolis as part of the Indianapolis Children’s Choir Early Childhood Program. Through an observation summary, we will analyze and discuss great aspects of and room for growth regarding the pedagogical approach to this class. More specifically, we will use Gordon’s…

In "words are birds" Francisco X. Alarcón uses many metaphors comparing words to birds to suggest that words, although many and vastly different, all fall under one category and unite us all. The poem begins by giving the reader an overview of how words and birds are related: "words / are birds / that arrive / with books / and spring" (1-5). The correlation between words and books is obvious, as they are often put together, but the author is comparing words to spring as well to show that we use…

smell. Hearing is associated with the ear and how the sound waves travel through from external to internal ear. The external layer of the ear consists of the auricle, external acoustic meatus, and the tympanic membrane. Sound enters through the auricle, which carries the sound waves to the external acoustic meatus (i.e. ear canal). The external acoustic meatus in turn carries the sound waves to the tympanic membrane (i.e. eardrum). After the sound waves have traveled through the external ear,…

of a telephone and possibly an emergency vehicle alarm, but we didn’t know if all of these elements would be heard during our walk. We do not feel that the sounds we were making changed throughout the walk. Our own sounds consisted mostly of the rustling of our clothes and our footsteps. Our sounds were drowned out by the more prominent sounds of the landscape. Interestingly enough, we also noticed that…

Sound. Another complicated, complex idea humans struggle to completely understand. Sound is highly difficult to understand and explain. It is difficult because sight overpowers hearing. Additionally, sound is difficult to explain because it is affected deeply by different experiences, such as: Berine Krause’s personal experiences in his “First Notes” article. Also, sound is very different and unique which makes it hard to fully understand. The “First Notes” article and the passage from “Sound as…

or in some cases one is not necessarily caused by the other. Some of the possible factors of phonological and articulatory impairments can be developmental impairment in speech-sound production, language impairment in their production of sounds of the language, hearing impairments which enable them to acquire speech sounds or neuromuscular disorder that can cause weakness, paralysis or poor coordination of speech muscles. 2) What are some speech characteristics of a child with a language…

The French horn has a brassier sound than a flugelhorn. The main visual difference between a flugelhorn and a French horn is the rounder shape of the latter instrument. A flugelhorn looks like a large trumpet; the french horn does not. Sound wise, however, the two instruments do share some similarities. It takes some extra study to figure out the differences. Range The flugelhorn has the range of a typical trumpet, sounding from G# below middle C to three octaves above middle C. While the…
