Xylophone

oboes, bassoons, clarinets, saxophones, trumpets, horns, trombones, tubas, the triangle, the xylophone, the double bass, and finally, the piano. The wind ensemble performance was conducted by Paul Herrera. Accompanying the band was Michael Martinez, a well-known soprano saxophone soloist. The venue itself took place in San Jose State University’s Music Concert Hall. The stage was set up with a piano, xylophone, the conductor’s stand, and chairs separated by rows where the majority of the…

O’Brien feels an overwhelming amount of guilt about that man dying, that he blames it on himself. Sanders, like O’Brien, realizes that his story did not match what truth of the situation is. The day after Sanders tells the story of the chimes and xylophones, he comes to O’Brien saying “I [have] a confession to make... Last night, man, I had to make up a few things… The glee club. There wasn’t any glee club” (O’Brien 73). Sanders lies in his story, because after hearing the noises the six-men…

Today’s version is a mallet and round balls. If that isn’t enough to keep them occupied, the slide out xylophone can fill the void with joyful sound. • LITTLE TIKES 3-IN-1 SPORTS ZONE Growing a sports lover?

usually 100 bpm. Matches should away be play rhythmically right because it acts as a metronome during matches. Lessons two in the green book should be practiced and executed at 80 bpm. Week 6: Syncopation lesson eight snare drum lesson two in green xylophone. This week is back to syncopation because I want to cover in depth subdivision with dotted eight notes and triplets. These can be done at 90 bpm. I wanted to go back to lesson 2 again this week because I want to hear. Week 7: Syncopation…

strong with crashing cymbals and a loud drum. It was very powerful and had really good harmony all together. The second song was called Regrets and Resolutions. It started off very peaceful and quiet with flutes and clarinets. Then the horns and xylophone were added in. The flute soloist would play one song and the rest of the instruments were playing a different one, it actually sounded really cool. At one point it all the sudden got really loud and violent with horns and trumpets playing. The…

Swimming through the Notes I can remember the day in fifth grade band sitting at the long, gray percussion tables listening to our band director teach “If You’re Happy and You Know It.” Staring off into space because I already knew how to play it for a few months, I could vaguely hear Mrs. Tripi’s voice telling the flutes to watch for A flats and reminding the trumpets that B flat is first valve. As I waited patiently for the rest of the band to finally pick up on the well-known melody, I sat…

The Langston Hughes performance we saw on Thursday was very unique. At first, I thought it was going to be boring, but after having a better understanding, I began to like it. Throughout the whole play, there was jazz music in the background which helped the play move along smoothly. On the side of the stage, were two men who played the instruments. One instrument, the saxophone, was played pretty often. Percussion instruments, such as the drums, were played as well. All these types of…

On Thursday, November 1, 2016, I attended World Percussion Night at Bowling Green State University. This musical event took place at 8:00 PM in Kobacker Hall located inside the Moore Musical Arts Center. World Percussion Night featured multiple styles including performances by the Kusuma Sari Balinese Gamelan, Afro-Caribbean, Hayabusa, and Kaze No Daichi Taiko ensembles. As I entered the building, I was anxious to see what I would endure at this concert. Not only had I never been to a musical…

take me back to an earlier revolutionary period with a rhythmic beat almost portraying strides leading up to a battle. Typically Leonard Bernstein would bring the tempo back down underlying a slow river with high pitched flute notes including a xylophone.…
