Stephanie Aviles Music Review The event I attended was a classical performance. It was on a Wednesday around 4 pm. The event consisted of soloists‚ group performances and some type of poetry reading. Although I did not really enjoy this performance as much as the Latin jazz performance it was still a good performance.

of my favourite musicians. ‘The Music Lesson: A Spiritual Search for Growth through Music’ is simply a music lesson‚ that also completely changed the way I look at music. In The Music Lesson‚ Wooten connects music to a lot of other things in life. After reading the book I saw that the essence of music‚ the attributes that make it what it is‚ in many ways are the same as the attributes to life itself.

In actuality‚ math and music are related‚ and we use

People that do not listen to rap music should realize that rap music carries out positive meanings for society to recognize.
