Rhapsody Final The original song I had wanted to write about was Sweet Child O Mine by Guns N Roses. After further analyses of this piece of music, I realized it would not have enough contrast for me to write multiple pages. After much thought and consideration, the new piece I chose to write about is Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. Bohemian Rhapsody has plenty of dramatic contrasts, frequent shifts in tempo, and changes in rhythmic character from section to section. The piece was written by…

additional national forests, and the numbers of national parks was doubled.” (Page 173 lines 14-18). If John hadn’t educated himself and gone to college we most likely wouldn’t have the National Parks and wildlife we have today. Theodore Roosevelt may have still created some national parks but without the influence of John Muir I doubt that he would’ve created as many and as much as he did.

It grabs you into the picture and invites you into the funeral the second your eyes notices the piece. The focus point allows you to take a step into the frozen moment. Black and white is the predominate color scheme of Teleforas’s work. While you may think that the black and white wouldn’t do much for the piece, it actually enhances the art really well.
