My final winter concert has come and gone quicker than I could have possibly imagined. It was certainly one I will never forget because it was my very first time performing in every band and choir group. It was a very stressful night but having it perfectly planned and having help from many of my fellow performers definitely made me feel a lot more at ease. This concert definitely had it’s ups and downs and there are somethings that I wish went a lot better. However in the end, I did enjoyed performing
from the album.The song certaintly inspired me a feeling of peace and at the same time it gave me a glance back in time. The song started very mellow and an extended solo was played by Les (Sax) the melody then had its “rising action” where all instruments accompanied the melody. I must say this song was very differently played compared to the album one, the piano gives a great essence to the song but the main “star” here is the sax. The sax is like the heart of a song. It was very romantic and poetic
performed by the Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis. The video of this concert is 90 minutes in length. The concert was an ensemble of various Dave Brubeck arrangements utilizing various jazz techniques and styles with mainly the following instruments: bass, piano, trumpet, trombone, tenor sax, soprano sax, clarinet, bass clarinet, alto sax, flute, piccolo, baritone sax, drum, and tambourine. The performance included these 15 pieces: “Unsquare Dance”, “Three to Get Ready”, “The Duke”, “Cassandra”
Daversa. On that evening the talented young exposed certain styles and rhythms with instruments such as saxophone, trumpet, piano, bass, violin, cello, viola, drums and vocals, creating a genre of classic and jazz music. As we have previously studied jazz is a musical genre born among black musicians descendants of former slaves who joined their own tradition some elements of European music as harmony, form, instruments, etc. Characterized by a strong
that I was able to support my wonderful school, professor, and a great ensemble. The event was at the college Mount San Jacinto in Menifee, California at 7:30 p.m. The ensemble is Menifee Jazz ensemble which consisted of outstanding instrument players. The instruments included were trumpets, trombones, saxophone, drums, congas, piano, bass, and guitar. Menifee Jazz Ensemble collectively performed 10 pieces, but the three that stood out and stuck to me the most prominently for different reasons that
Those first heaps of breath create caution for those who wish to enter the Pharcyde’s Bizarre Ride. In the song “Passin Me By,” the Pharcyde takes listeners on a sonic journey of smooth jazz, comical puns and lyrics, funky vocals, and extreme head-nodding, leaving the listener seemingly holding their breath throughout the song to such musical creativity. “Passin Me By” is a realm of jazz and funk, allowing both blues and funk listeners of the musical spectrum to enjoy the song. Although each member
The Mud Turtle Quintet On Tuesday, March 21, 2017, I had the at most pleasure of attending the Mud Turtle Quintet at the Stafford Center for Excellence for Visual and Performing at the recital hall. The quintet consists of instruments ranging from acoustic and electric guitar, both played by Marc Rosenberg; viola, played by Faith Jones; violin one played by Rachel Shepard; violin two played by Melanie Riordan; and cello, by native Ukraine, cellist Vyacheslav Dobrushkin. The band played unique and
On Tuesday, Feb. 23, The Faculty Jazz Sextet seamlessly performed eight pieces, six of which were original compositions of a few members. The sextet consisted of Michael Hackett (trumpet), Will Campbell (alto saxophone), Noel Freidline (piano), Ron Brendle (bass) and Ocie Davis (drums). The 8 pieces performed were “Down South,” “Everything I Need,” Mealy Mouth,” “South American Getaway,” “Blue Robin,” “Leaving Soon” and “New Point of View.” The two pieces that Will Campbell composed were “Down
enjoyed the show very much. The atmosphere was lively, entertaining, and full of rich sounds. I could tell the band put forth a lot of effort into their song arrangements. One thing I liked about the show was that it was organized where different instruments all had their places in the songs. The alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone, trombone, trumpet, piano, bass, and drums all played harmoniously and in tune. Nothing sounded out of place, and they did a great job working as a team to
professor for the tuba, and as such, has a couple decades of experience. His solo was amazing, his skill on the tuba is extraordinary. He flitted between high and low notes with astounding ease, flying down and back up through his range. He made the instrument play notes higher than I knew a tuba could play. His performance really tied the piece together, as it provided a graceful interlude in the middle of the song, seamlessly blending into the rest of the
chlorates). For the same reason, use separate instruments (plastic spoons, mixing cups, etc) for different chemicals. Label your instruments so that you know what materials they have been in contact with. 3) Mix materials outdoors. Chemical explosives contain their own internal source of oxygen, and cannot be smothered. If you start a chemical fire indoors, it can be nearly impossible to extinguish. 4) Be aware of static sparks. Do not use metal instruments to mix or grind materials. Do not store chemicals
Irony as an Instrument Its 7:09 am and Olivia is woken up by a wetness between her legs. She looks down and finds that the wetness is actually her water that broke. She anxiously wakes up her husband John, and the two of them quickly gather their things. After nine long months of waiting, John and Olivia are finally on their way to the hospital to welcome their first child into the world. The two have already chosen Jacob Alexander as the baby's name and have the nursery ready for him at home
How We Acquire Knowledge When I think about knowledge the first thing that comes to my mind is education. I believe that knowledge comes to people by their experiences in life. In other words, life is an instrument that leads me to gain knowledge. Many people consider that old people are wise because they have learned from good and bad experiences throughout their lives. Education requires work, dedication and faith to gain knowledge. We acquired knowledge through the guidance of from parents
different conditions and thus showing when milk should be added assuming you have a phone call. The three different conditions were chosen because these were the most likely situations encounted by someone who is making a cup of coffee. We used Tain instruments to accurately calculate the temperatures in the three beakers chosen and we then recorded these results and used them for this report. The purpose of the experiment was to find out whether it is best to pour milk in a cup then take a phone call
sitting back smiling and enjoying her movements, aroused by her music and charm. Master of double entendre, Shakespeare writes "Sonnet 128" as a sexual conceit. He compares her playing beautiful music on a "blessed" wooded instrument to her playing his blessed wooden instrument (phallic symbol). In fact, he sees the woman as his playtoy and object of possession for him to exploit for his own sexual enjoyment, misinterpreting his selfish lust as love. The poem has an atmosphere of licentiousness
regulative conception of logic represents logic as an “instrument” of reason that takes for granted a formal set of rules, rules which have no bearing on “reality” and that are “invented” as tools to guide our thought.[ii] It is no curiosity that as a result most contemporary logic text-books present logic as formal or informal system of rules meant to regulate our thinking. But why should we presuppose that logic is a regulative “instrument” devoid of ontological status? The aim here is to show
“With the writing of Jazz, Morrison takes on new tasks and new risks. Jazz, for example, doesn’t fit the classic novel format in terms of design, sentence structure, or narration. Just like the music this novel is named after, the work is improvisational.” -www.enotes.com/jazz/ “As rich in themes and poetic images as her Pulitzer Prize- winning Beloved…. Morrison conjures up hand of slavery on Harlem’s jazz generation. The more you listen, the more you crave to hear.”-Glamour Toni Morrison’s
the 1800s medical technology as made remarkable advances. The most basic instrument for a surgeon, which was a field in which Dr. Frankenstein was a pioneer, is the scalpel. There have been no drastic changes in the scalpel since it was first constructed. What has occurred are the refinements to the instrument. When Dr. Frankenstein wielded the instrument it was a simple steel blade with an ivory handle. Although the instrument was adequate it was not completely sterile because of the ivory handle
can visit her. Visiting her is like marriage in today's sense. If the woman is interested in the man, she would tell her address and name. The man would visit the woman's house in the evening and call her name from outside. He might play a musical instrument like a flute, or harp, or sing songs to get her attention. Men sometimes visited women without calling or playing any music. Whether the woman accepts the man is up to the woman to decide. If the woman is interested, she would invite him in. Men
associated with psychometric testing * Dispite what has been said in previous sections, there are numerous tests and questionnaires on the market which purport to be 'psychometric instruments' but which are not. Unfortunately, it is very difficult for untrained people to distinguish these from good psychometric instruments. In many cases, these tests and questionnaires have been put together by people with no background in psychometrics and they have very little actual utility and value for the
