“Leaping Falls” by Galway Kinnell and” Acoustic Sculpture, Sound Art, and the Music of the Sea" are both pieces that explore the theme of nature and sound.

“And on your left you’ll see one of the tallest waterfalls in the world” the train conductor announced. Everyone shuffled for their camera to capture the moment. As the scene came into view the cog train was filled with the sound of a disappointed gasp, followed by glances to the vested instructor that read ‘are you kidding me’. The “waterfall” looked more like a miniscule stream than a massive landmark he told us it would be. Because we were near the top of Pike’s Peak, he wasn’t completely wrong. We were expecting something the size of Niagara Falls.…

An autumn breeze swept through the air and danced with the scarlet leaves. The streets, evenly lined with trees donned with golden hues, looked like that out of a picture. Everything was beautiful in this moment in time. Everything was perfect.…

Despite the fact that there are only a few auditory descriptions in the first paragraph, the author still manages to create the sound of a river rushing by through his heavy usage of sibilants in the opening sentence of the paragraph. The author…
The moon shined brightly that night and so Arethusa saw every move the men made above her walls. When they already motioned to pour the contents of the drums into her basin, she felt the sudden pang of fear and panic. However, before the stench liquid material reached the bottom, a wave of extraordinary strength and height rushed through the fountain, going straight to the direction of the falling matter. It caught them and rushed back out to the…
I caught the faint laughter of the museum inhabitants and the shuffle of their feet, but other than that, I walked around the Metropolitan Museum in silence. The statues looked ethereal and stoic, the clay figures reminded me of a paused TV, but I was searching for something that I could hear. I strolled up to Gao Keming’s handscroll “Stream and Mountains under Fresh Snow” and the painting was more than what you could catch at a first glance. I caught the sound of a rushing steam, the stuffed crunch of snow being mated by footsteps, and silence of a different kind. It was the silence of nature that I usually head back home, and the echoing of my eardrum searching for noise, only hearing the muffled incoherent clamor from someplace far. I…
Amidst this raucous, a delicate melody started to sing. It’s music rose in lilting waves filling the violent air with beauty. The tune spoke of gentle winds that breathe magic. A border of white…
Just seconds from the fall, our guide yelled for us to keep one foot secure under the middle of the raft so we stay in, not more than one second went by when I suddenly felt like the world had dropped out from underneath me. I looked forward to see the winding river what appeared to be off in…
Instead here was strange. There were no man in sight, trees that seemed to reach to reach the clouds, they were so tall that they blocked the blazing sunlight from entering. The grass here was unlike the sugar cane, some were razor sharp and some made my skin itchy and red. Here smelt fresh like the morning dew, even the sweet scent flowers overpowered the atmosphere. I had now remembered what a sweet scent truly was. There were also strange noises some in which echoed through the entire forest and then there were the citers of the night even the waterfall tumbling down the cliff could be heard.…
When we arrived at Niagara, we started looking for our hotel. We found our hotel, The Swiss Motel, and then checked in. After we checked in the children were not ready to go walking to look at the waterfalls. They wanted stay at the hotel and swim in the pool. The weather was beautiful when we arrived at Niagara. Later that afternoon we decided to go walking and look at the waterfalls. When we arrived at the park, we walked around just to get a quick look at the American Falls and the Horseshoe Falls. The waterfalls were so beautiful. I had never seen waterfalls so big and powerful. At night on the Canadian side the workers would shine these big spot…
• At first I was a little nervous about getting into the water, but I was determined to try it. Besides, the water was nice and clear.Then I dropped into the pool. Any fear that I had just washed away. It was incredible. I could see everything under the water.…
As the lights went off, the audience went silent, curiously waiting to see what was going to happen next. All we knew was the performance name, Agwa, the Portuguese term for water. Even if I had not been given the title of the performance, I could have guessed it after seeing the dancers perform.The performance Agwa portrayed the many dimensions of water through dance. The essence of water was clearly painted on the stage by the bodies of the dancers through fluid movements, powerful yet graceful acrobatics, and tranquil music.…
I felt happy in the company of nature. The bright hued flowers, the clouds sailing across the sky and the snow covered peaks of the high mountains in the distance filled my heart with joy.…
