It is Andrea Amati who is the known developer of the violin. Amati apprenticed as a lute maker and in 1525, he became a master instrument maker. The earliest noted violin makers were Gasparo da Salò and Giovanni Maggini, both Italians, but it is during the 17th and early 18th centuries that the art of violin making reached its peak. The Italians Antonio Stradivari and Giuseppe Guarneri as well as the Austrian Jacob Stainer are most noted during this period. Stradivari was an apprentice to Nicolo Amati, Andrea Amati's grandson.

It adds to the emotional affect that a composer is expecting the listener to have immediately. The Baroque is an era more of trial and error when it comes to ornamentation in music, especially with improvisation. Of course, there are two types of ornamentation you find in Baroque music, written and improvisatory, but the main type used is improvisatory. Sometimes composers, like Bach will write out a small amount of written ornaments in a piece, but it is mainly written out in the beginning as more of a guideline for the performer. After they see this guideline, the have an idea of what the composer would like, and can improvise over the remaining piece of music.
This era is known and studied for great cultural changes, literature, art, music, and successes in Europe. It is also known as the modern age. During the early 14th century, Italian professors began studying Greek and Roman cultures that paved the
Unlike typical chamber music, the violin and cello shared equal parts in Duo for Violin and Cello (1932). The piece overall, as the Parnas sisters explained prior to playing, has remnants of Asian texture and tonality and is very dynamic and rhythmically driven. This became very clear in the first movement. As a member of the audience I was captivated. The movement sounded almost violent and rugged while being played allegretto.
Angie Morocho 11/16/14 Should students at WBA be allowed to listen to music in their core classes? Some parents and teachers think that students who listen to music during their class time will be distracted and won’t be able to focus on the lesson they are being teached. On the other hand, some parents and teachers think that students will do well and are able to focus better. Both sides of the argument have good reasons but I believe students at WBA should be allowed to listen to music in their core classes. Music is believed to help focus better in their task.
But it was definitely a very educational experience closely observing the conductor. It has made me appreciate the job even more. I always figured it wasn't easy being a conductor, but not being familiar with conducting and what the job entails, I never really knew why. Upon closer observation, it becomes very apparent why conducting is so difficult. The conductor must not only be aware of what every musician is doing, but be aware of what each musician is supposed to be doing according to the score.
In fact there is rare evidence that the opposite is true. However, this does not seem so important for 2 reasons. First, no one is really doing anything huge about it besides, some schools have already started to encourage educators who are musicians but to do not teach music at their schools, to volunteer their time to guide students to becoming involved with music and art. Secondly, much of the research which encompasses a different viewpoint than the creative arts is more useful than math, seems to lean more towards drawing a connection between the creative arts and other subjects, showing that the creative arts do make students smarter but that it is still more important to be good in all other subjects as well. The article titled , “Does Music Make You Smarter?”, which was published in Music Educators Journal brings up some important information regarding the problem.
In the absence of a conductor, a musician’s focus during performance is directed towards a playing member to get a cue. Alert audience will notice a nod of a head or a hand gesture from the musician to pick up a musical thought which may be disturbing to the audience. The physical style of playing is usually not experienced in a standard symphony orchestra. Thus, there is a high probability of miscommunication among musicians in depicting body movements which may spoil the performance. 2.
