Johann Sebastian Bach composed his Suite No. 3 in D major. This piece was in Basic Musical Concepts: Types of Listeners 1. At the beginning of the piece‚ the quiet feel of the song almost feels like a quiet show of love. As the line continues‚ it turns into almost a somber cry‚ maybe about losing a love that was once so grand. The piece picks back up as if memories of happier times are coming back to the composer. In the second section of the piece‚ the somberness becomes more pronounced as the composer

Wilfred Owen is a remarkable figure who expresses his thoughts and experiences of the unspeakable war and the decimation of youth in his passionate poetry during WWI.

In this essay I will be comparing the two poems‚ ‘The Man He Killed’ by Thomas Hardy and ‘Dulce Et Decorum Est’ by Wilfred Owen. ‘The Man He Killed’ is about a man who was in the war and is thinking about his memories in the war. The main part of his experience in the war that he is reminiscing is the killing that he committed and the majority of the poem is focused on that. Thomas Hardy did not go to war himself but it could be thought that he got the idea from a friends experience in the war. The

During his lifetime‚ Johann Sebastian Bach was famous as a virtuoso organist rather than as a composer. His works conveyed a sense of beauty and creativity that few can rival. Bach’s use of counterpoint was brilliant and innovative‚ and the immense complexities of his compositional style -- which often included religious and numerological symbols that seem to fit perfectly together in a profound puzzle of special codes -- still amaze musicians today. Many consider him the greatest composer of all
