Paganini “This man with the long black hair and the pale countenance, opens to us with his violin a world which we had never imagined, except perhaps in dreams. There is in his appearance something so supernatural that one looks for a glimpse of a cloven hoof or an angel’s wing” Paganini remains one of the most famous virtuosos in the history of music. His concerts were not only astonishing, but controversial. People could not believe what Paganini was able to do; consequently, they explained
Live Performance Review The concert I chose to review was a performance of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons. This was a performance of the three movements of ‘Winter’. It was performed by the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, with guest soloist Julia Fischer. Niccolo Paganini’s ‘Caprice NR. 2’ was also performed. This performance took place in 2002, at the Nymphenburg Palace (Schloss Nymphenburg) in Munich Germany. Antonio Vivaldi, the composer of ‘Winter’, was born in Venice, Italy in 1678. He was
The Play of the Diary of Anne Frank starts out in the annex in the warehouse in Amsterdam, Holland where Anne Frank and seven others hid out during World War II. It opens with Otto Frank and Miep Gies standing in the annex alone in 1945. Mr. Frank had just come home from the concentration camps, being the one survivor from the annex. After conversing for awhile, Miep hands Mr. Frank Anne’s diary from the days of living in the annex. He starts to read the book, as it slowly flashes back to 1942
personal growth and development is likely to be attained. Their significance is illuminated by the fact that both of them encourage the patient’s ‘here and now’ awareness, which is fundamental in personal development (Brenner 2000). 2. Gestalt Fritz and Laura Perls are responsible for the founding of gestalt therapy in the 1940’s. From there on, Gestalt has contributed significantly to the field of psychotherapy, counseling, and personal development. When therapist uses this method, his or her
Anne Frank also known as Annelies Marie Frank was a sixteen year old girl who got murdered during the Holocaust. She was born in the city of Frankfurt in Germany to her parents Otto and Edith Frank. Anne Frank had an older sister who was three years older than she was and her name was Margot Betti Frank. The Franks were known as a very liberal family who were also classified as a middle class family since their ancestors lived in Germany. In 1933 the Franks decided to move towards Amsterdam since
Elvis may have also suffered from depression and anxiety which may have led to his drug usage. To check to see if he had symptoms of depression, I would use the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). It is a 21- item self-report that measures the different attitudes and symptoms of depression (APA, 2014). He may or may not have developed anxiety during his life. I would consider possibly using the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI); it measures panic related anxiety and/or somatic (body related) anxiety (ATS
Miep Gies wrote Anne Frank Remembered to honor the memory of the Frank family, to show what happened to Jews during World War II, and what she did to hide the Frank family. Gies was asked to write about her experience in the war, but Miep also wanted to consider how Anne Frank played such an enormous role in Miep’s life; Gies wanted to add the impact of how Anne’s diary affected people into her book. The book is the first-hand account of the persecution of Jews. Miep was born in Vienna, Austria,
History was made on January 30, 1933 when an appalling and repulsive act took place. Annelies Marie Frank was just a young girl when the holocaust began. Anne Frank was born on June 12, 1929. She is from Frankfort Germany where she spoke Dutch, attended a Montessori school, and lived with her parents and only sibling. She also had a tremendous talent of writing at just the young age of 13. The holocaust was an event set up and held by a man named Adolf Hitler. He and his men killed anyone who wasn’t
Anne Frank was a young girl who suffered and just had a hard life. She was 13 years old girl who had to go into hiding. Some Jews had to go into hiding or they had to go to a concentration camp. Jews were treated badly back in time. If you were a jew and you were seen the Nazis’ would take you away to a concentration camp to work. But sometimes you could be killed in a gas chamber, or killed from a disease or die from starvation. Anne for her birthday got a journal from her father Otto Frank. And
In the Diary of Anne Frank hope and courage is an important element to have during hardships as shown through the Franks, Miep, and Mr. Kraler. They present this through their actions, words, and thoughts about their faith that everything will be alright in spite of their situation. These components are essential in times of misery because without them for they would have given up on life a long time ago. Their courage and hope will show shine through in the evidence below to support this idea.
Throughout history, there were and continue to be numerous people who influence the way a certain event turns out. Although some of these individuals influence the events of history negatively, there are some that lead to a positive outcome of a not-so positive situation. It is individuals such as these that make our world the way it is today. Meip Geis, is one of such individuals who influenced a very significant historical event. Meip Geis helped to shelter eight Jews from Adolf Hitler and the
In Anne Frank’s book, The Diary of a Young Girl, there are several conflicts. The main conflict is internal, and more specifically, it is man vs. self. The conflict is Anne having to adjust her life, attitude, demeanor, and etc. to live in extremely close quarters with strangers, at the same time trying to discover and learn who she really is. The Diary of a Young Girl is not only about the purging of the Jews in World War II, it is a true story about a young girl whose life is turned around as a
Although society is becoming more progressive, it is vital that the harsh treatments of individuals with different religions must never be erased from memory. In the play of The Diary of Anne Frank, by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, Anne Frank, a young girl, along with her family, the Van Daans, and Dussel, are hiding from the German Nazis. If they are caught, they would be sent off somewhere nobody would find them and come back. Trust and friendship lead to perfect harmony among people. When
spiritually centered on a dynamic leader known as a rebbe. “Therapists also need to become aware of their own cultural biases in order to avoid stereotyping clients from other cultural groups (Nevid & Rathis p.326). Gestalt therapy was established by Fritz Perls. “Like client-centered therapy, Gestalt therapy assumes people disown parts of themselves that might meet social disapproval or rejection” (Nevid & Rathis p.308). Although it borrows much from psychoanalysis, Gestalt therapy focuses more on
This would happen to be my report on what happened to Anne and her family while World War II was in action once it was converted to a play and a movie format. I'm sure they both these versions are much less graphic than Anne and her family saw it. I just hope Anne feels that they do her story justice. Both the play and film version of The Diary of Anne Frank focus on Anne Frank and her family's experiences in hiding. However, there are some similarities, including how Anne hands out presents to her

His big discovery was that, electricity traveling through a wire gives off an electrical force. He came up with the idea of this when the scientist he worked with was putting a compass on eieither side of a electricfied wire. The needle of the compass the deflected at right angles.

Young Girl’s Diary There are a lot of ways to change the world and people. Weapons like guns and knife can hurt or take a life from a person. Gifts, flowers, and a smile can make a person to feel a love, and relaxation. However, what is the strongest thing that can easily change a single person, to bunch of people, to a big amount of group, and even to the world? The answer is 'words'. Words have a special ability to make a person to be sad, happy, or mad really quickly. They are stronger then someone's
Jung believes there is no correct way to interpret dreams. The meaning of ones dreams is up to ones self to decide how it should be interpreted or how it is meaningful and significant. His theory on dreams is that they are a way to reveal more information about ones self or current situation in the waking life. He also believes dreams “can guide your personal growth and help in achieving your full potential” (Dream Moods). Alfred Adler was an Austrian medical doctor and psychologist who was known
Anne Frank was a 13 year old girl who lived in Amsterdam, Holland. She wrote a diary about her life during the Holocaust and when she was in hiding during the Nazi invasion. In her diary, she said “Despite, everything, I believe that people are really good at heart.” I agree with this statement. My first reason for agreeing with Ann Frank is that people will often help others, even in the worst conditions and even if they put themselves at risk. For example, Meip, an employee of Anne’s father, was
"If freedom is short of weapons, we must compensate with willpower" (Hitler 5). During the 1930's in the light of Hitler's Nazi Germens, they decided to invade all the Jewish countries. People were terrorized, forced to leave their homes and either go to concentration camps or find hiding spots. This war went on for many years. One of the most famous hiding spots of all though, which housed eight people was called "The Secret Annex". This is where the Frank and the Van Pels family stayed for twenty-five
