In the song “La Chicharonera” by Narcisco Martinez, his style of accordion playing is described as a polka, which is an upbeat couple dance in 2/4 time. This is a stark contrast to Esteban Jordan’s song “Cumbia de Chon”, which is…
Diego Rivera’s artwork Puesta de sol 15 (Sunset 15) created in 1959 is a two dimensional painting created by using oil and tempera on cardboard, and is a prime piece that exemplifies my theme of nature through the seasons. This entire art project itself works together as a whole to create my theme, and Sunset 15 works to exemplify nature during the summer season. Sunsets are something typical of the summer season, and while Rivera’s take on a sunset is interesting, and uniquely different, we still get the point of how nature is envisioned during the summer months with the hot summer sun and its intense rays of light. The water is also an aspect of nature of and of summer time that exemplify the theme trying to be conveyed with this artwork.…
It appeals to performers and audience by beginning with a energetic maestoso. At measure 9 a low brass figure leads into the first statement of the flowing, lyrical theme 1 in the clarinet and baritone voices. A measure 30 the rest of the woodwinds join in the melody. Around measure 53, Swearingen somewhat layers more and more voices of the band into this piece. At the end of this piece they finish with a strong coda section in ABA style composition.…
22. Which two properties of musical sound do you think are emphasized in this piece?…
This exercise consists of three parts: select, remix, and reflect. At first it seems like a funny discussion that makes us remix the lyrics in a more appropriate way. However, every progress that we made throughout the exercise requires a logical choice. When it comes to the reflection part, we need to explain all the ideas behind our decisions. I spent some time on it and got a useful feedback from the instructor. In order to complete this assignment, one of the skills required is to slow down and explain clearly our assumptions and our…
Siddharth Srinivasan Dr. Judith Jones Textual Analysis and Argumentation 29 September, 2017 Differences in Writing Styles in the Early Literature of American Exploration Perception is the unique filter that every person develops through their personality and their actions. Perception can alter how people view different objects, works, ideas, and even other people. In describing the customs of the indigenous people met in their relative areas, Sahagun and Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca differ on the purpose and the standpoint from which they describe them. We can view these differences in purpose and writing style by means of the concept of perception. Sahagun writes about his findings with help and direct insight by the people themselves,…

To introduce the piece two cadenzas inspired by the same melody are performed over a continuous subtle harmony. The piece begins with sustained chords between the string instruments and wind instruments. This gives a relaxed effortless tone to the piece and resembles the calmness and tranquillity of a spring day in England. The violin then enters imitating the lark. The violin plays an ascending pattern with elongated arpeggios. The chords underneath drop out so the violin plays a solo introducing the first theme. The orchestra is quietly introduced and develops the almost folk like motif. A folk dance theme is then introduced led by the clarinet and flute and woodwinds as the solo cadenza is repeated. The full orchestra then comes in however it is still fairly restrained to imitate the English countryside. There is antiphonal exchange between the solo violin playing a trill and then the woodwinds imitating the bird like call. This is followed by the solo violin playing a series of cadenzas over the orchestra which could represent the lark flying over the countryside and rolling hills. The shorter cadenza for the soloist is fairly contrasting in comparison to the rest of the piece. There are two separate melodies competing with one another yet also mimicking each other. There is…
The timber was worm, and smooth. Moreover, the texture of this movement is likely to be homophonic because many note and the main instruments were the woodwinds that have the main melody. I enjoy this movement Precisely because it is more emotional; they end this movement with slow short solo woodwind instrument. The third movement of this piece was titled Song of the Blacksmitb. The speed of this movement was Moderato, which makes it faster than the firsts movement; also it has some fast note. In this movement the timber was between brassy and harsh. Addition, in this movement all the lines was played at the same level since it very short movement, that makes it polyphonic. Nonetheless, the forth and the last movement of the first piece was titled Fantasia on the Dargason. This movement started with solo French horn. This movement has combination of the texture the monophonic and the polyphonic because there was some notes that the entire instrument played at the same level, on the other hand, there some note that one instrument has the main melody. Moreover, in this movement there were two times when they play solo the first combination the French horn that has the main melody and the tuba, the second combination was the piccolo with trombone. The tempo was…

Being primarily consumers, our view on advertisement is extremely biased. We consider most of it as excessively annoying and censure the advertising industry while at the same time we are highly receptive to their efforts, and as if that was not enough we take part in collegiate neurological studies on consumer behaviour. The advertising industry uses our behaviour as a tool and the better they become the less we are annoyed by all the banners, TV ads and product placements. But why do they keep on becoming better and better? The answer lies within a network of different sciences that constantly works on finding new ways to reach our mind. Since art is not a science I am going to leave it out although it clearly adds up to today’s advertisement. My essay will focus on the five sciences that have the biggest impact on the content of advertising: Psychology and neuroscience, business economics, sociology and political science. Starting with short definitions I am going to explore their different approaches to the topic and the way they contribute to the success of the advertising industry.…
