Bitter Sweet Symphony by the Verve A contemporary song must be carefully chosen to be put in the UTD time capsule. The song must cover the many characteristics assembled in this class as well as the many characteristics of our generation. ìBitter Sweet Symphonyî by the Verve is the perfect song to combine these positive and negative aspects. It will fairly portray to the future the many colors of the students of UTD. ìBitter Sweet Symphonyî should be chosen by the class, because it is the
Symphony", by The Verve, is written in a way that explores the writer's inability to change his life. He sings a negative spin on life, and has written this song as a reflection on how his life is not turning out the way he had hoped. Writing music is a gift, sometimes thought of as a therapeutic process, and the varied styles of writing can be illustrated in three songs; Fixing a Hole", by The Beatles, "Creep", by Radiohead, and thirdly in "Bittersweet Symphony", by The Verve.

piece. This is an example of a recording process known as sampling, in which a small portion of an already existing song is reproduced and inserted into a new song. In this case, The Verve was able to utilize the Rolling Stoness The Last Time in collaboration with their own music to invent a new sound. Just as The Verve took a sound from the past, students are taking the experiences and knowledge of the past as they embark on the new millenium. We are not repeating our past failures, but instead are
Bitter Sweet Symphony by Erin Flannery True, it was a hard decision when I was decided which of my classmatesí papers to choose as ìthe one.î I considered a question when trying to decide. I asked myself, ìWhat purpose this time capsule will serve?î My answer told me that the song inside this time capsule must be one that can still teach a message while telling the future generation something about our time. I believe the culmination to this answer was found in Erin Flanneryís ìBitter Sweet
chance to show their true musical talents. One example involves the group Verve Pipe and their hit song "The Freshman." This songs LP was out in December. No one noticed it until halfway through the month of March. "The Freshman" was played every thirty minutes on the radio and fifteen times a day on MTV. This in my opinion results in the complete overplay of one bands hit song. Now we consider them a "One hit wonder." The Verve Pipe has more good music, but who is to say that anyone will ever hear

the twenties, and its center changed from New Orleans to Chicago. From there it spread to Kansas City and New York. The end of WWI ushered in the Jazz Age in New York, and it came to be associated with the parties and wild behavior of the 1920’s (Verve). Music from this era is also sometimes called “The Chicago Style,” and includes artists such as Bix Beiderbecke on trumpet and Pee Wee Russel, Mezz Mezzrow, and Benny Goodman on clarinet. By the 1930’s the movement had shifted yet again and began
Coffee roasting businesses are booming. Those who care about the best cup of coffee in their coffee shops and cafes are starting to roast their own beans. When they do it well, they sell those roasted beans to other local businesses. They'll often train other businesses' employees. They'll run cuppings for coffee shops, and choose partners that care about the products as much as they do. We've gathered some of the best in California for this post. They are roasteries that care about their local

The development of a national curriculum for Australia is not a new endeavour (Marsh, 2010). The ideal is that national curriculum across Australia would mean that students are provided with a quality education that helps to shape the lives of the nations citizens and continue developing the productivity and quality of life within Australia. The Australian Curriculum Assessment and Reporting Authority [ACARA] have the task of developing and implementing a nationwide curriculum. ACARA (n.d.-c) claims
Programmatic music would only flourish in the Romantic period, while Vivaldi used it in Spring – so Vivaldi was a composer ahead of his time in writing concertos, and in writing fresh melodies. Rhythmic verve can be seen by the complexities of the melodic rhythms in Vivaldi’s work. In Spring, the triplet rhythm is used with semiquaver beats. Such employment of rhythm instead of the homophonic chords, or regular division of notes provides more individualism
three times for it to be released as a studio album. Norman Granz was responsible for the creation of the pairing as he worked for the Verve recording label. Granz selected eleven melodies that maintained a slow to moderate tempo to ensure an intimate feeling in the music was kept. To provide the instrumental section, the Oscar Peterson Quartet was hired. By the time Verve hired Armstrong and Fitzgerald, they were both already well-established musicians with prominent careers.
Ella Fitzgerald Singer. Born April 25, 1917, in Newport News, Virginia. (Though many biographical sources give her birth date as 1918, her birth certificate and school records show her to have been born a year earlier.) Often referred to as the "first lady of song," Fitzgerald enjoyed a career that stretched over six decades. With her lucid intonation and a range of three octaves, she became the preeminent jazz singer of her generation, recording over 2,000 songs, selling over 40 million albums
the role of a vigilante. The vigilante’s role in the frontier was that of extralegal verve which was used to restrain criminal threats to the civil peace and opulence of a local community. Vigilantism was typical to the settler-state societies of the western frontier where the structures and powers of government were at first very feeble and weak. The typical cowboy hero had a willingness to use this extralegal verve. The Virginian demonstrated this throughout with his interactions with Trampas, most

A single artist can have a very strong impact on a whole genre of Music. We have seen this time and time again through artists such as Charlie Parker, David Brubeck, John Coltrane, Art Blakey, Miles Davis, and various others. All of these artists had tremendous influences on the different eras that evolved throughout the history of Jazz. Bill Evans, and American jazz pianist, was no different. Just as Charlie Parker had started the evolution of Bebop and influenced the subsequent generations of Jazz
Reader Review by Skip Schmidt Jennie Linnane's delightful coming-of-age novel, Ironbark Hill, is a fine addition to the YA genre. Set in the Australian outback in the immediate postwar era, Ironbark Hill follows the life of Natalie Chapman, the dutiful, fiercely proud teenage protagonist whose struggle to both rise above and come to terms with her hardscrabble life lies at the heart of this novel. Protected by her loving mother, Irma, Natalie must deal with a tyrannical stepfather, Alex Townsend
Hypothesis The hypothesis of this study is that in families the eldest child’s personality is Type A and the youngest child has a personality of Type B. Introduction ‘Birth order theory can help explain why children raised in the same family environment with a strong genetic relationship can have such different personalities’ (Drysdale, 2011). The birth order theory says that ‘first-borns are leaders, the drivers and the responsible type. They love to feel in control and feel uncomfortable with
of the couple, the ubiquitous evil, the coy sexuality, the engagement with the audience, dysfunctional family, extra-marital relationship, man caught in a trap, and a shadow of doubt. These themes were examined in more depth with greater stylistic verve during the 1950s. In 1960s and 1970s Hitchcock made fewer films and many critics feel the films of the period revealed a decline in his talent. Of these, The Birds (1963) and Marnie (1964) still remain popular. Hitchcock returned to Great Britain
