Coro Concert Experience
Words: 591 - Pages: 3.... of the Virgin. Mozart wrote this composition in 1797 at the age of twenty-three. The six works of the Coronation Mass are: Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Benedictus, and Agnus Dei.
My favorite piece was Gloria. It was louder and more powerful then the rest. The parts were sung by women then men in a beautiful combination. The music was soft and intimate then quickly getting louder and more powerful. “Gloria” was trying to make a point in a almost begging manner. My favorite was the Amen at the end, and how it was equally distributed between the female and male.
I also enjoyed Credo. It was sad and hurtful. The strings and .....

Rap And Rock ‘n’ Roll
Words: 797 - Pages: 3.... who created the music. Racism was a big issue at that time, especially with black and white. They were like worst enemies with each other. Rock ‘n’ roll was very popular among many people but not many of them knew that black artists created it. In the past, whites never accepted music from black artists. Through whites was the only way to introduce new music made by the black artists. Here is a quote about how new music created by black artists were treated. When rock ‘n’ roll was sang by black artists, our society did accept it as music. They saw it as devil’s music. When Elvis, king of rock, sang rock ‘n’ roll, the music blac .....

The Beatles

results from the group.
The band began playing in a Music Hall style that is very effective
for the audiences but was lacking on their albums. Together with Paul, John
began to evolve the band. As the years began to pass, the band was
obviously beginning to grow musically. They had moved from simple lyrics
like "Love me Do" to harshly aware reflections of life in their home
country in "Eleanor Rigby"2. There were attempts, some more successful than
others, to incorporate the other Beatles into the idea stage. George
Harrison made this leap successfully with such tracks .....

Comparison Between Piano Concert By Barbara Wieman And Sacramento Chamber Orchestra
Words: 1008 - Pages: 4.... I might
add. Barbara Wieman was very animated performing this piece and seemed to be
very emotional while playing. This piece was very distinct and there was an
effective use of rests that was displayed. I would call this piece very serious.
After Beethoven we were treated to F. Schuberts Impromptu in G flat Major, Op.
90, No.3. This piece was very pleasing to the ear so we could call this
consonant. The music seemed to flow and had a great rhythm. This piece was
romantic in nature and probably that is why it was written in the romantic era.
C. Debussy ‘s Feux d'artifice (fireworks) was the next piece played. The
harmony was v .....

Music And Stress
Words: 1306 - Pages: 5.... of stress. There are six separate
forms of stress that can be experienced. These are symptomatic in physical,
behavioral, emotional, cognitive, spiritual, and relational aspects.

neck and shoulders, racing heart, trembling hands, and restlessness.
Behavioral symptoms I felt were: a definite excess in smoking, bossiness
towards others, compulsive gum chewing, I became critical of others, grinding of
my teeth so hard that I am forced to wear a mouthpiece at night, and an
inability to finish what I s .....

New Orleans Jazz Band: Dag

that of one of the popular Jazz artists would have had upon his/her first visit
to New Orleans in the early 1900s. Bourbon Street, the French Quarter, Jimmy
Buffet's Maragaritaville, The Flamingo, the Garden District, and Moolate's all
helped me to get into the proper frame of mind of experiencing true Jazz. The
focus of this report will be on my life changing experience at a little place
known as The House of Blues. This amazing combination of bar and stage created
one of the most conducive atmospheres to music listening that I have ever been
involved with. The stage, similar to the F .....

Bluegrass Music
Words: 809 - Pages: 3.... the Grand Ole Opry
radio program in Nashville, Tennessee in 1939. By 1945, Monroe's band
included Earl Scruggs, who popularized the characteristic three-fingered
banjo picking style, guitarist Lester Flatt, and fiddler Chubby Wise.
The Scottish-Irish music of southern Appalachia was a powerful form
of entertainment as folks gathered in the evenings to dance and socialize.
It was what people back then loved. The people back then probably looked
at bluegrass music in the same manner as I look at alternative music today.
It was just a style of music that they could relate to and express some of
their ideas through.
Bluegrass spread w .....

How To Listen To Music, Not Just Hear It
Words: 1017 - Pages: 4.... corners.
The second consideration is placement of speakers. The corners of a
room are the perfect spot for your speakers. You shouldn't position them flush
against the wall, but put the back of the speaker into the corner, so each side
of the speaker is against each wall. For this reason, the bass is extended
(louder), and the tweeters, mid-range, and woofers give you their undivided
attention.
Where to sit is simple, but it takes some easy calculations to find the
perfect spot. There is a common rule for a person to experience the full effect
of the music. In order to do this, measure the distance between the two speaker
cabinets. .....
