  • Mariachi Concert Critique

    734 Words  | 2 Pages

    In this piece, two male musicians took turns during the performance to sing their parts. It starts off slow, as opposed to most of the music played that afternoon. During the middle of the piece, the guitarron continued strumming while Stacy Lopez, the vihuela player, made noises that sounded as if the vihuela itself was being struck. “Para Que Me Haces Llorar” soon came to a close; at least, it sounded like it was. As immediately as that song ended, the next piece started just as quickly and it had a song that had a familiar rhythm- and sure enough, it was the song “Stand by Me” but in Spanish. This part starts off with violins being plucked and with a calmer tone with a pace that builds up. Later on, all the musicians snapped their fingers as one of the singers were singing. After the singer finished his part, the violinists took over the microphones and made a deeper sound than what was heard out of the eight pieces

In other words, there are stimulating occurrences within even the most mundane lifetime that provide incredible sensory and a life changing incentive.

An example of such an influential event is expertly playing an instrument and marching deliberately within The Pride of the Devils in front of a populous crowd.

    The instruments used for this song is of a standard rock band; lead vocalist, electric guitar, bass guitar and drum kit. The genre for this song is determined by the steady and yet simplistic instruments used in this version. An interesting note is that the chorus is in the genre of rock but the verses combine the genres tango and reggae. This could be because merging these three different styles of music attracted the attention of youth more with rock being rebellious at that time and tango and reggae having a heavy beat for that time period. ...

    Just from the title the melody of the song was very luring almost toxic enough to put me into a deep sleep, but at the same time sending a slight chill down my spine. In the beginning of the song, it was inviting with the beating of the percussion instruments though from where I was sitting it looks like there is two groups taking side of the percussion players fighting it out. Once the string instrument enter into the fray the song becomes a polyphonic texture with an allegro and moderato melody. It was very balanced and almost has a theme of many Egyptian theme music. The percussion instrument takes the lead in this song with the backing of the string building up the big finale of the song. However, in the beginning to the half of the middle it was playing it a smooth moderato pace having a quadruple meter beat. The rhythm is specular because it recoursed from the percussion instrumentalist from beginning to near the end. Creating a nice dramatic expressive quality into the song. In the second half of the song, it alternated between upbeat and downbeat creating an atmosphere of a battle between two opposing forces. The song ended in a big bang sending every single person wide-awake and almost I felt a slight adrenaline before I
