George Armstrong Custer was considered a renowned All American Army general who famously lost his life at the hands of Native American warriors at the Battle of Little Bighorn. Philbrick notes that Custer was “a true prodigy of war—charismatic‚ quirky and fearless” (p.xvi). With these attributions he soared to become one of the youngest brigadier generals at the young age of 23. Lieutenant General Philip Sheridan wrote praising Custer to his wife. "Permit me to say‚ Madam‚" he wrote‚ "that there

Concert Review: “ACDC-Black Ice” For me‚ this concert was a once in a lifetime opportunity. I have been listening to this band ever since I was little and watching their concerts on DVD with my dad who really loves rock ‘n’ roll music.

When I saw that ACDC was going to be in San Diego‚ I could not pass up the opportunity because this could be one of their last tours. I had

Concert Review 2 Not thrilled to go to this concert‚ I brought it to myself to go anyways. There were a few reasons I decided to go. One‚ the date worked out well for me and I needed to get this done. Two‚ my professor Dr. Mapp‚ yourself‚ was one of the conductors so I felt like I could relate better possibly. Lastly‚ a fraternity brother of mine in Sigma Phi Epsilon‚ Russell Budden‚ was playing the horn and I took this as an opportunity to listen to him play‚ especially after hearing what Russell

Concert Report On Thursday‚ December 24th of last year I attended the Christmas Carol Service held by the Cathedral of the Madeleine in downtown Salt Lake. I enjoyed that the concert was featured by youth and young adults‚ some around my age‚ and also that nearly all of the songs were accompanied by an organ. The organ completed the whole feel and mood of the songs; it made them more meaningful and enjoyable. The accompaniment added an element to the music that made it sound more dramatic and it

Journal IV Music Appreciation Piano Concerto No. 23 in A Major‚ K. 488 I love Mozart‚ Beethoven‚ Bach‚ Chopin‚ and all the classical period instrumental compositions. This piece is whimsical and reminds me of a butterfly just flying through the spring air after coming out of a cocoon. The tone is very warm and bright‚ listening to the overall allegretto tempo you get excited when you hear the tempo jump to vivace and back down to moderato. This concerto was completed in 1786‚ which also happened
