The only responsibilities they have are cooking‚ cleaning‚ and caring for their loved ones. The short story “Wagner Matinee” by Willa Cather and “A pair of Silk Stockings” by Kate Chopin specify the significant sacrifices women are expected to accomplish during that era. Both women in the short stories live similar lifestyles but have different aspects about themselves

“A Journey through Life” Life is all about choices. Even the simplest choice could turn a situation around and further affect the future of an individual forever. I found Willa Cather’s short story “A Wagner Matinee” very interesting. It deals with different levels of choices‚ some which might affect the character’s life slightly‚ while other choices may affect their entire lifetime. The way the story is written makes the reader think a lot about the events

In the back of her mind‚ photographs of her family arose‚ their smiling faces when she showed them the gifts she had purchased. She then came to a realization‚ that today she only fostered herself. The pair of silk stockings‚ the fancy lunch‚ the boots‚ magazines and gloves how would she explained the items to her family. Mrs. Sommer’s walked away from the matinee poster‚ and tears filled

which are from least to most influential: Schubert‚ Haydn‚ Chopin‚ and Wagner. Schubert was most known for his melodies and absurd amount of composed music. He was very influential in shaping the Lieder‚ which was essentially a poem put to music and a very important genre during the Romantic Era.

I was at the Bouder/Veyette matinee today. Ulbricht was in for Ball as the Jester. I wish Ball well but was delighted to see Ulbricht. He’s been doing this role for 15 years and may be sick to death of it‚ but you’d never know it. He was wonderful technically and as a character. I always find him a very warm performer and super appealing. I hadn’t seen Bouder in this before and was nervous about her Odette. I needn’t have been. She has transformed herself IMO when it comes to adagio movement
