“Land of the free and the home of the brave.” This line has represented the United States for decades. These words were captured in The Star Spangled Banner by Francis Scott Key and since 1913, the United States has adopted The Star-Spangled Banner as its national anthem. We have used the Red, White, and Blue as one of our nation’s symbols. It has fifty stars, to represent the number of states we have in our Union. The military pledges its allegiance to the flag and the country which it represents at all costs. We are the land of the free and the home of the brave, and we are proud to show it.
The history of the Concert Band and Wind Ensemble will be reflected through a timeline of events, including an analysis of significant events, groups, composers, and advancements. When society envisions a Wind Ensemble, talented musicians, grand music halls, and difficult arrangements typically come to mind. However, a modern-day Wind Ensemble includes a variety of musicians, each with positive and negative aspects. In society today, music is greatly appreciated and accepted. It is considered an honor and a privilege to expose our ears to the music.
Music is virtually everywhere we go, no matter if it is background noise in a coffee shop or singing along while shopping for groceries, we can find music somewhere. The event I attended was the Flint Symphony Orchestra on October 8, 2016. I have never attended a symphony before so I was excited to go, especially since I had invited my friend to attend with me. For this event, I was already informed by my teacher that the symphony will be formal so we needed to look the part since others will be dressed fancy. This made me curious how this event will turn out. Walking past the ticket area and through the doors to the lobby made me feel instantly memorized at how grand it was on the inside. I went downstairs and there were a vast
It is a rare occurrence in today’s over-amplified, bass-kicking sound world to leave a concert feeling as if you actually heard the music. Over the Rhine provided one of those concerts on Thursday October 2nd at Birdys Bar and Grill in Indianapolis. My personal congratulations to the sound guy, who’s mixing allowed the audience to really hear all the different layers of music and different instrumentation really being played.
The two concerts that I chose to go see were Stanislaus State Wind Ensemble and Jazz Ensembles & Combos Concert. These two concerts are both very similar yet different in their own ways. Each piece also has many attributes to contribute and it was fun being able to watch two very different genres.
The Seaside Music Festival is only in its third year, but already they have made great strides as far as getting the boardwalk community behind them. Continuity between businesses and city teamwork were evident this weekend thanks to festival co-producer Mike Schwartz. Fellow co-promoters Ryan Sharkey and Jose Anteo were also prepared with interns and section teams out in force to keep things moving. This year’s festival also had many loyal return participants such as The Aztec Motel and Sandbar, The Beach Bar, El Camino and Jack and Bills down the boardwalk as well as several others. Without these stalwarts there would be no festival, it’s a combination of geographic locations, logistics and a community that remains open to new things.
Compared to all the other concerts that I have gone to, the Ron Eschete Trio concert was a definite change in atmosphere. On February 23, 20001 I attended a concert held at Ahmnson Building in Los Angeles County Museum of Art, featuring Ron Eschete on seven string guitar, Todd Johnson on six string bass, and Paul Humphrey on drums. It was three hours long, from 5:30 to 8:30. I arrived there little late because it said to be held on times mirror central court but it was actually playing at lower level of Ahmnson Building.
According to The Chicago Tribune “Close to 3,000 people have been shot in Chicago so far this year.”In 2016 chicago homicide rate was at an all time high,last year there have been reported 762 people died from gun violence,”3,550 shooting incidents, and 4,331 shooting victims.”Hundreds of people have died from gun violence every year and also a portion of the murder rate is made up of innocent people that have also died from a firearm violence.Also in the united states the number of fatalities from a firearm were “33,594” according to the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention.I believe we should ban the use of firearms because the number of people that die or get injured from a firearm keeps dangerously increasing each year.
As it turned out, Jeff knew someone who needed a band for an ROTC Halloween party to be held in the basement of a campus dorm. The band volunteered to take the gig. Even though they had only been playing together for a few months, they had assembled a play list of cover tunes and a demo tape. They played under the temporary name of Blackwood Convention (Bernstein, 4).

On Sunday November 29th at 5:15 pm, I attended a Great Organ Recital concert, which was held at Saint Thomas Cathedral located on fifth avenue in Manhattan. It wasn't the typical idea of what others and myself of today's generation would perceive as a concert we might go to in today's world. Most people in this era think of going to see a famous singer like the very popular Chris Brown or Selena Gomez when they hear the term "concert." However, this scenario was a bit different given the location and the material presented. This specific performance can be categorized as a type of chamber music. It was an instrumental piece performed by a soloist who goes by the name of Benjamin Sheen.
Music plays a major role in life for most people. It can soothe and excite, encourage sleep and encourage dancing, we can sing to it and ponder it. There are so many different uses of music and so many mediums through which to play it such as Pandora, Spotify, YouTube, etc. Beyond that, more songs every day there are new songs being written. Statistics show that ninety-five percent of all Americans think that music is a core part of a balanced and well-rounded education. The same study showed that ninety-three percent of Americans thought music belonged in the public schooling system, and seventy-nine percent even suggested that music education should be mandatory for all students. Still, studies show that a staggering twenty percent of high school students choose
I’ve chosen to become a Music Educator as a career. I feel that music has had such a great impact on my life that I can give back to the future generations by teaching it. I have a great love for education, so this career is for me.
The inaugurate piece Strict Love caught me by surprise. Before the performance music is played in the background. Before the actual performance began music was played. I thought nothing of it assuming it was music to simply hold the crowd. And also I under was the impression that this would end once the show began but to my surprise this featured music was ...
My mother and I had sat down an order some appetizers and we continued listening to the music. It was very peaceful with the music playing and the atmosphere. As I cotinued to lisetning and watching them I could see they were very engaged in the rythem. They were not just playing but they were active in the music. You could tell they were very passionate about it. It was comforting sitting down and listening to the music. There were hardly any people there and I knew it was good chance to personally talk to the band members when they had an intermission. I had listened to three different songs before I spoke to them. “Beautiful Love”, “Misty” and You’d Be So Nice to Come Home to” I was able to gather this information when I was interviewing them. Misty was very soft and had a slow tiempo to it. While the other two were a faster tiempo with a louder volume to them but were not so overwhelming. The saxophone player was Pierre, a French name he told me. The upright bass player was Mike and Chris was on the piano. The songs that we had listened to were mainly jazz standards. The only vocals sang were by Pierre on “Misty”. The tone quality was easily distinguished throughout the songs. The piano was heavily involved in all three songs meaning order of the soloists Chris (piano), Mike, (upright bass), and Pierre
