Both musical performers incorporated unique musical elements such as melody, harmony rhythm to mention a few. Lowell Lieberman performance was very captivating through his exhibition of passion throughout his musical circles. Throughout his musical performance, Liebermann makes imaginative use of rich and varied harmonic rhythm. His performance shows a classical theme from the beginning to the end. The mood in Lieberman music made the entire room gloomy whiles the melodic lines made the room flowing, the rich harmonies in his music made the room surprisingly striking.
Another performer that I enjoyed was Shug Avery, her acting and her musical talent was one of the best out of the whole show. When she song I felt like she was singing to me. I felt like I could connect with her. She made sure the audience felt every word she said and sung. And lastly, Sofia did an awesome job.

Just like Vicente Fernandez, his music dealt with issues about love, politics, and religion. Infante was an actor and a musician and so in a lot of his movies he performs his songs wearing the classical charro mariachi suit. One of his famous serenata songs “Esta Noche” deals with love and how much he suffers for the woman. These two great artists are not only known for their songs and lyrics but they are also admired because of the great patriotism they have for their country. Since mariachi is an unofficial symbol to
Country music tells a story usually dramatic to a harmonious tune. It places an emphasis on the lyrics and the voice is always predominant in the songs (Michaud, 2011).
