With that said the crowd took a liking to his performance which was followed by a big applause. I personally wish he could have stayed on key during the entire performance. I understand everyone can’t hit every note so overall he did well. A few more churches performed. One in particular was The First Baptist Church choir.
bell/clock tower that is the 2nd tallest building in Laredo. The bell isn’t too loud or low, but it gives off a very sad vibe and inspires goose bumps and thoughts of death. It’s hard for a person who doesn’t really attend church more often than others to hear the bell ring and not think about a funeral, which is where someone would most likely hear this frightening noise. Maybe you’d feel a bit more at ease once you hear the harmonious choir singing inside the commodious chapel. The benevolent greeting from the people you see sitting by you may comfort you more too.
He uses the phrase "What a world of merriment their melody foretells"(line 3) to exemplify the happiness and joy fullness of the bells. These bells are bright and soft, almost comforting. Poe also refers to heaven in the line "All the heavens, seem to twinkle"(line 7) to exaggerate the beauty and joy brought by these bells as he compares their noise to the twinkling of heaven. Poe also uses onomatopoeia in this section to help the readers actually hear the bells he is illustrating. He says "How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle"(line 4) to describe the delicate noise they make when they ring.
It is at this point when the flag is projected. The image instills a sense of dread on the audience and makes the scene more vivid and intense in their mind. A technique used in conjunction to the image is the sound of lapping waves. This helps make the event more real for the audience. Another technique used is the voices of young Bridie and Sheila singing ‘Jerusalem’ sounding waterlogged.
The final piece they played was called Strange Humors for String Quartet and Dejembe. This was by far my favorite piece. There was a sound to it that made it sound like it could be the final song in an Indiana Jones like movie. I thought this because of the added bongo sound, and the way that they rarely played the same tune, but it still blended into a desert sounding piece. All in all, I am glad I went to this concert, the first half got a little long, but the second half was very enjoyable.
The music seems to be Church music with chanting. At this point of the scene the music begins almost joyful and a celebratory manner. Eventually Catherine and Peter arrive and the marriage ceremony begins. As the wedding rituals are being conducted, the camera is filming at a high angle, and the subject is viewed from above. It gives the appearance that she is somewhat small and helpless.
Antonio Edwards Presbyterian College Admission Essay 03/10/09 My Influence My life has been filled with extreme excitement. There were highly spiritual times at church, crazy jam sessions, and times that I felt songs pinched my heart. You see, music has become my first love. From the beats, pops, degree of difficulty, and variety of artists, there was love at the first sound of music. I will never forget the day that I saw my inspiration show me how to perform music with a distinct feel, style, and flavor.
All of the members of that community were completely devoted to their faith and peacefully connected to God when they were in prayer, which was amazing to see because people are like this in my church as well but not always in the same way. I found myself constantly comparing to my own culture, and sometimes forgetting I was in a different church and starting to say other prayers. To be honest it was almost frustrating not knowing what was going on , and although they were welcoming, I still felt awkward and out of place at times. I think I felt this way because it felt familiar in a sense, so I thought I had a good idea of what was going on, but it was also very different as far as some of their rituals and beliefs. One thing I may have done differently is tried to interact with more people than I did beforehand to help me understand what was going to happen in the
The music was generally fast and the sound was very brassy to me. The purpose of the songs they were playing seem to be expressing a mood to me, as if the audience should be very awake and alert. It was not calming at all but I'm not sure it was supposed to be! I would say that the overall unifying principle of the entire concert is the range in melody. The choir put a spin on the way I ever looked at lyrics but the melody that they created was both high and low, they just stayed in harmony even when they weren't all singing at one and it was guys vs girls.
Since I love music, I could be involved in different choirs either on campus or in church along with just singing around with different people for fun. Also in this I can participate in things that I normally wouldn’t do like help at an animal shelter or something more creative. In my last attempts at finding a new hobby I believe that I could help more with children. Since being enrolled in college I have decided to change my major from nursing to elementary education. So in working with something that I am passionate about I can continue to do my mentoring groups along with other big brother, big sister type of activities.
