Just as the sun began to flirt with the horizon‚ I broke through the doors of Dunham Hall and sifted between small masses of people to claim my ticket. After the fact‚ my eyes bounced around the auditorium and finally tagged the perfect seat. Shortly after planting myself at an optimal distance from the stage‚ the theater slowly began to fill with murmurs of proud parents and blue hairs‚ who all waited to obnoxiously cheer for their children and grandchildren performers. I hovered the pencil above

For the first listener’s guide I chose to listen to the piece Hildegard of Bingen: O vis aeternitatis. This piece is very calm and sweet. It had a relaxing and soothing tone to it. The music is just gorgeous and powerful. It was a very simple piece that was compelling to hear. Hildegard was one of the most prominent composers from the middle ages. Hildegard’s music rises to the level of sacrament from the divine of grace to the heavenly choirs down to us. Not only she was a composer‚ she was a writer

The coming of sound was an innovation to cinema that forever changed the way films were produced‚ viewed and performed. Sound plays many roles in the way a film is narrated and perceived by the audience. Sound‚ as defined in the Oxford Dictionary of Film Studies‚ ‘is central to the way in which a film establishes setting‚ shapes character‚ signposts its narrative‚ directs the audience’s and instils general emotional states’ (2012: 385). Sunrise: a song of two humans by F.W. Munrau was released in

An orchestral instrument like mine would be the flute because it has two open ends like mine does. The physics behind a flute is that it can either be an open or closed end pipe and it depends on what kind of flute you get. With the harmonics the lower holes are in the flute to shorten the air column to raise the fundamental frequency of the open air column. To make an higher note you can force the air column to sound its second harmonic‚ up an octave from the fundamental.In a flute decreasing

As we entered Peter Jay Sharp Theater‚ I was glad to have equipped myself by thoroughly understanding the purpose behind the structure of the performance I was here to witness. We chose to be seated on the balcony to better appreciate the music‚ and I realized that the concert hall possessed a similar layout to the college auditorium. It was also considerably smaller than the Metropolitan Opera House at Lincoln Center‚ where I have been to see wonderful ballet performances. The demographics encompassed

The Power of Music in Humanities For my humanities report‚ I attended the Wind Ensemble concert at the Timko Barton lobby on October 8‚ 2015.

Dr. John Jenkins‚ the director‚ was so motivating in every piece of music and of the program. The concert program ran smoothly as the ensemble

The combination tends to give the piece a somber‚ and yet comforting‚ quality. According to our text book‚ Music: The art of listening‚ the melody uses a pentatonic scale‚ which
