The illustration of how unattractive this new financial situation would be hard to measure and speculation of losing their financial standing would move the Opera against the merger. To solidify the lack of desirability of the merger, Mr. Bailey could use the opinions of outside skeptics that have spoken against Mrs. Ewer. These skeptics believe that Ewer would not be up to the task and the economic gains that are anticipated would not happen. These skeptics believe that the differences in the Opera and the Symphony would not make a good business model. A2.
Knowing the definitions of pitch, timbre, meter and loudness, to name a few, do not help me enjoy music more than what I already do. Even though Levitin defined music as sound reverberations striking the hearing mechanisms of the ear, he goes too into detail when he further describes music. Levitin also stated that the expert language is too complicated and creates a separation between musicians and other people, which is not justified by the writer in my opinion. If the expert language is too enigmatic, then why go into descriptive definitions? I believe that the writer should have started the book by not defining the countless list of musical terms, but rather, he should have answered his question to the title of the first chapter: What is Music?
Through the use of props and symbolism, Steers reveals how Igby, like Holden, rejects the idea of changing who you are to fit in with society. Both composers utilise their characters’ physical appearance and dialogue to reflect how they reject conformist
In the early 1800s the sudden onset of the Second Great Awakening influenced many reform movements, inspiring people to seek personal salvation and improve their lives as well as the lives of those they considered less fortunate. The Second Great Awakening launched a variety of reform movements across the country in an attempt to perfect the democratic society. Americans who participated in the Second Great Awakening considered America “youthful” and thought that they could perfect their surroundings and help those in need. The Awakening called on followers to prove their faith by helping those less fortunate than themselves by spreading their ideals. Two examples of the widespread influence of the Second Great Awakening are the creation of utopian societies and the temperance movement.
Before this music was made, there are conflicts going on with World War II and then after that people are started to think that they should celebrate it with joy and honor to the countries that were saved. So, to them writing music is something that was symbolic to them, and it is especially great when it comes to that. That’s why; Aaron Copland started to work on his Symphony No. 3 commissioned by a conductor Serge Koussevitzky and the Boston Symphony Orchestra. This ends up becoming Copland’s word that would “reflect the euphoric spirit of the country at the time”.
Brass and Burkhardt (1993) coincide that their study is limited. They cautioning the readers or others investigator to not generalize their study’s results to other organizations; due to the flexible environment in the organization examined. Another limitation is the quantity of mechanical and interactive variables that could essentially be involved. Thus, they did not have comprehensive lists of any possible foundations of authority or tactical actions. Brass and Burkhardt (1993), suggested upcoming investigation covering the study at both the micro and macro stages of examination.
It stems from a need to question the world around them and begin to have their own personal beliefs and actions. These new- found values are opaque to some and repugnant to others (118). These values can be heard through this new genre of music, known as “bebop”. Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker recognized one another as “kindred spirits” and formed the foundations for “bebop” by refusing to play what the masses wanted to hear (114). Instead, they played what “didn’t exist in the world around them” (113).
And when someone comes along who’s trying to be real, they don’t know the fuckin’ difference” (Barker and Taylor, 25). Eddie Vedder’s words show how it is essentially impossible for listeners to define authenticity. There is no way for an artist to be completely authentic in all elements of their music. We can see that a musical artist cannot be entirely authentic through looking at the careers and music of Woody Guthrie and Jimmie
Ornamentation In Baroque The seventeenth century is know as an era of invention and discovery, an age of daring expansion.1 Ornamentation is the practise of adding notes to a melody to help add expression, not spoil it. It helps emphasize a note and prolong its length. Ornamentation is one of the most important things to be considered in the history of music in this period. Earlier instruments did not sustain notes as long, so using this tactic helped.2 There were two main types of ornamentation used which were written, and improvisational. These types of ornamentation were used not only for instrumental music, but for vocal music as well.
