Concert report 1 The concert I went to was called “Afternoon Chamber Music.” Even thought I left my house early‚ I still managed to arrive 10 minutes late.

When I finally got inside‚ the small room seemed to be packed‚ but I managed to find an empty seat in the front row. The sitting arrangements were the basic for any performances‚ same as in all the lecture class rooms. Most of the people

The Ring’s Addiction “One ring to rule them all‚ One ring to find them/ One ring to bring them all and in the darkness blind them/ In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie.” (p. 8) This was said at the beginning of the story telling a brief summary of the ring of Sauron. The poem tells you how the ring will blind you to the point that the need that you will feel of it will be bigger than anything in the world. It will be so big that it becomes an addiction‚ worse than any drug in the word‚ because

The Glory of the Lord by Handel has four motifs which are: ‘And the Glory the Glory of the Lord’ – This motif outlines the chord of A major‚ the tonic chord‚ and moves up the last three notes of the scale. This helps to establish the key. The word-setting is syllabic‚ one word to a syllable. ‘Shall be revealed’ – In this motif the second bar is a repeat of the first bar but a tone lower. The word ‘revealed’ is melismatic (several notes to one syllable). ‘For the mouth of the lord hath spoken it’

Whoever reads Harry Potter or Lord of The Ring should also discover the other one too. Both are the same basic “hero’s journey” archetype with two great main character which I really love: Harry Potter and Frodo Baggins. There are certain similarities between them which interested me a lot. Like Frodo‚ Harry is an English orphan; and both of them discover their destinies as reluctant heroes after a birthday: Harry after his own while Frodo after Bilbo’s 111th birthday party. Since then‚ Harry entered

Tolkien has experienced a resurgence of interest in the last two decades-in a large part thanks to Peter Jackson’s film adaptations of both The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. However I do not wish to look at the movies‚ or indeed at any of Tolkien’s more prevalent work. I wish to focus on his poetry‚ the poems woven into the narrative of his popular novels (including revised versions published in The History of Middle-earth series) as well as his stand-alone pieces that may have little to do with
