    Maestro 'And The Painting Starry Night'

    Distinctively visual images which can be seen, or perceived in the mind can shape the responder understanding of relationship with others plus the world around . The use of distinctively visual features has had a positive effect on my understanding of the novel Maestro by Peter Goldsworthy’s and the painting ‘starry starry night’ by Vincent van Gogh. This has been done through distinctively visual features such as descriptive and emotive language in Maestro and the use of colour, shading, lighting and placement in ‘starry starry night’.In saying this, this gives evidence as I do strongly agree with the statement ‘‘The visual image has a significant impact on the way the responder is positioned to react to a text’. This will be seen through…

    Henry Lawson, Distinctively Visual

    Distinctively visual is a representation of something that is unique and eye catching. Henry Lawson’s short stories ‘The Drovers Wife’ where a bush woman and her four children face the dangers of a snake and the tough, lonely bush life and ‘Joe Wilsons Courtship’ where a young boy tries to fulfill his emptiness with young love, display ideas such as the unpredictable and lonely way of life that the bush brings. ‘Automat’ by Edward Hopper shows visual techniques in a similar way to ‘Joe Wilson’s Courtship’ in order to convey the expectations that society has on social status, resulting in an experience of isolation in the bush.…

    Oboe Research

    The oboe first appeared during the 17th century. Even though the oboe made its orchestral debut in France in 1657, its earliest ancestral oboe like instruments were first used around 2800 B.C. The closest predecessor of the modern oboe is an instrument also part of the double reed family called the shawm, which dates way back to its creation in the 1200’s. The first baroque oboe made out of boxwood was created in France for the purpose of entertaining the French court. Its name was derived from the French word hautbois meaning “high wood” and is what it was actually referred to when it first emerged. The oboe gained immediate popularity and was found ubiquitous in many countries like Europe and England. By the 1800’s the oboe became an acknowledge member of the orchestra. Surely there were many modifications that evolved the oboe such as adding more keys (also the “slur key”) to the instrument in order to give it a wide range of notes. The reformations of the oboe eventually stopped and have remained basically the same since 1825. The modern oboe equipped with the “full conservatory” key system has 45 pieces of key work and has a range of more than two and a half octaves.…

    Mozart Symphony 4

    My listening selection that I chose from the classical era was ¬¬¬Mozart’s Symphony #40 in G Minor K 550. This piece was composed in 1788. The tempo of this piece is molto allegro and the rhythms are fairly simple. Syncopation is used in this piece as well with homophonic texture. The piece is mainly quite with development to a louder section in the middle, but ends softly. The exposition of the piece demonstrates the quietness that is seen, but contains a small louder section. The recapitulation is very similar to how the exposition is composed. The majority of the dynamic parts are sudden with very little build up to crescendos or diminuendos. There are… This is piece has been described by being a muted struggle against out of controllable…

    Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Clarinet Concerto

    Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born 1756 and died in 1791, in his lifetime he created a phenomenal amount of impressive works including operas, sonatas, symphonies, concertos and chamber works. Mozart’s father Johann, also a musician, realised his son was particularly gifted in music at the very early age of 3, when he started playing keyboard. At the age of 5 Mozart was composing and performing his works all over the Europe. At the age of six Mozart performed for the Bavarian elector and the Austrian empress. His father felt that it could be very profitable to expose his children’s musical genius (Mozart’s sister Maria Anna was a gifted keyboard player). In 1763 he took his children on a tour to Paris and London as well as several courts while on the journey. Mozart astounded audiences with his tremendous technical and musical ability. On this tour he played for the French and English royal families, had his first compositions published and also wrote his earliest symphonies. This tour ended in 1766, yet nine months later they left home again, this time to Vienna, where Leopold hoped to have Mozarts opera performed. In 1773, Mozart visited Vienna, it was here that he wrote a set of string quartets and when he returned home, he wrote a group of symphonies. From 1774 through to 1777, Mozart worked as Concert Master at the Prince Archbishop’s court, during these years he wrote masses, symphonies, all of his violin concertos, six piano sonatas several serenades and divertmentos and his first great piano concerto.…

    Medieval Bagpipes

    The bagpipe, though still widely used and recognized, is one of mankind’s oldest musical instruments. The bagpipe’s early ancestors can be traced all the way back to ancient Egypt, Babylonia, as well as Mesopotamia. Those early versions were reed-sounding single-pipes or double-pipes. These pipes are also known chanters. The basic means of sound producing comes from the vibrating of a reed or double reed on the chanter under the pressure of the breath. The double-pipes are thought by some to have had one pipe play an accompaniment or drone while the other would sound the melody, similar to its successor. (Collinson 1975, 19-25)…

    Multimodality: An Analysis of Brother's for Life Pamphlet

    Kress and Van Leeuwen (2006) have introduced different concepts to explain how to analyse multimodal texts. One of these concepts is information value, which can be described as the arrangement of verbal and visual signs in a multimodal text. Information value is divided into subdivisions, namely real, ideal, given, new, centre and margin (Kress and Van Leeuwen, 2006). Real refers to all the features that is found in the lower section of the text and it contains more basic, realistic and practical information (Kress and Van Leeuwen, 2006; Chen, 2010). Ideal signifies the upper section of the text and contains the information that grantees exquisiteness, exhilaration, success, prosperity or even the perfect situation. It portrays what ought to be or may possibly be (Kress and Van Leeuwen, 2006; Chen, 2010). The left side of the text is referred to as the given, which is all the information that is previously known to the audience or reader (Kress and Van Leeuwen, 2006; Chen, 2010). The new refers to all the features that are located on the right side of the text. This is the information that is presumed as new information and that which the audience or reader have to pay attention to. Thus, it…

    Violin

    At last, the Trojan fleet arrives on the shores of Italy. The ships drop anchor off the coast of Cumae, near modern-day Naples. Following his father’s instructions, Aeneas makes for the Temple of Apollo, where the Sibyl, a priestess, meets him. She commands him to make his request. Aeneas prays to Apollo to allow the Trojans to settle in Latium. The priestess warns him that more trials await in Italy: fighting on the scale of the Trojan War, a foe of the caliber of the Greek warrior Achilles, and further interference from Juno. Aeneas inquires whether the Sibyl can gain him entrance to Dis, so that he might visit his father’s spirit as directed. The Sibyl informs him that to enter Dis with any hope of returning, he must first have a sign. He must find a golden branch in the nearby forest. She instructs him that if the bough breaks off the tree easily, it means fate calls Aeneas to the underworld. If Aeneas is not meant to travel there, the bough will not come off the tree.…
