Review Of A Concert Of Sacred Music From The Moores Opera
... Amadeus Mozart,
was considered to have been written for the anniversary of the coronation
of an image 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 ...

Modern Music Composition
... is
determined through the overall feelings of the composer at the time, at which he
or she wrote it. The "attitude" sets the overall feeling of the piece of music.
If you fail to pass the feelings that you felt while you wrote the piece of
music, you fail in the overall goal of the piece of music. Music composition is
a very modern thing these days. It has grown because of the advanced
availability of better technology. Technology, which is changing every day, has
opened up new and more innovative doors. Included with the advanced
technology that has brought music to life, there has also been a steady increase
of musicians. This is in direct proportion ...

Acculturation: The Beginning Of Music Education
... Also, I will have a good sound system in both rooms (that includes a tape player and compact disc player), and some money (available to buy recordings and equipment). Next is the age range of the children. This is not related to the resources, but important. The age range is between shortly after birth and about 36 months (3 years). The first stage is Absorption. One of the most difficult things to do when guiding children through these stages is to know when the right time is to move them to the next stage. This often requires much patience. The reason that you need so much patience is because all children move through the different stages of preparatory ...

Early History Of The Pipe Organ
... similar in concept and style to those of a blacksmith, came into use
with the organ. Numerous bellows were used to supply air to the wind-chest,
often being pumped in pairs by men. The disadvantages of this method of air
supply include the lack of consistent pressure, which leads to inconsistent
pitch and tuning; also, many people were required to operate the bellows since
there were upwards of twenty-four bellows per organ (Hopkins & Rimbault 35).
Also, with organs of this size, the bellows took up large amounts of space, thus
forcing the organ to be located in a fixed place, such as a church.
Up until the eleventh century (approximately), pitch and range of ...

Reflections On The Bocelli Concert, April 15, 1999
... our seats, as they were way up high, and directly behind the performers.
I was seated fifteen minutes before the scheduled time. The place appeared uglier by the minute, and I kept wondering why half the seats were still empty at 8:00. However, the arena suddenly filled up, and the conductor took the stand approximately 20 minutes later than scheduled. When the concert began, I immediately came to realize how very lucky we were to have these seats. In fact, they were probably the best seats we could possibly have had because close-ups of the performers were projected onto three large screens during the entire concert.
The concert began with Overture to Norma, pl ...

Ist't It Ironic: An Imaginative Response To The Song "Ironic" By Alanis Morisette
... Sure enough they did, His grand daughter brought him some
flowers and his grandson, James who was six years old, bought him a box of
chocolates. They both wished him Happy Birthday and sat down next to him. John
thanked them both for the presents as he put them on the table next to his bed.
They talked about how James was getting on at school and how John's grand
daughter was doing at work. John remembered that he needed to get his lottery
ticket, he asked his daughter to get it for him. They joked about it being a
waste of money and even if they tried they would not be able to spend that much
money. She left James talking to John as she went off to buy the ticket. ...

People Are Still Trading Crime For Crime
... 2
She obviously knows she is part of a minority here but finds the matter important enough speak out for. I admire her for taking that stand by singing out for what she herself believes in.
The lyrics are not merely someone's state of mind it actually confronts you with certain questions. The finger is pointed at the listener;
I think guilt and innocence
they are a matter of degree
what might be justice to you
might not be justice to me.3
This is a clear example of DiFranco addressing the listener. One is almost forced to contemplate over such a line. DiFranco wants you to think about what justice means to you. So you soon realize that listening to the son ...

Film Score Music
... that the music that is scored for films or
played in films is put there on purpose to create a certain feeling, emphasize a
point, give more life to a character or sometimes to simply add humour. What
the average moviegoer does not usually realize is that a great deal of time and
thought goes into writing the score for a film and choosing the background music
for a scene. None of the music is arbitrary; themes and sub themes have been
created with specific ideas in mind and have been put in place only to add to
the story and the characters. It is also important to acknowledge that the
evolution into the type of film scoring that we are accustomed to today was no ...

Progression Of Music From The 1940's To The Present
... and record albums were entering the home.
(Hays)
The 50's marked a beginning for a new era of music to be known as Rock &
Roll. Many of the artists took advantage of the Electric guitar, developed for
popular music in the 1930's but never really became popular until the 50's.
Rock & Roll was a combination of many music styles in an upbeat sort of fashion.
One example of when country had an impact on Rock & Roll was with Bill Haley and
Jerry Lee Lewis. Jerry's career was huge, with his hits like "Whole Lotta
Shakin' goin' On" and "Great Balls of Fire". That is, his career was huge,
until the it was made public that he fell in love with a married his 13 year old ...
