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.
History of the Mariachi The best scholarly opinion is that the word mariachi has native roots. One theory is that it comes from the name of the wood used to make the platform on which the performers danced to the music of the village musicians. But whatever the true source, the word today has one meaning that is crystal clear: Mariachi means on of the most exciting and enchanting musical ensembles found anywhere in the world. In the complete Mariachi group today there are as many as six to eight violins, two trumpets and a guitar- are all standard European instruments. Natives, who had their own highly developed musical traditions, quickly mastered European musical practices.
I like the xylophone part because it felt like it was one part of the song. In the second chorus, which is also a 32-bar form, repeats what was played in first chorus. In the music, it seems like that the piano is the main instrument. The entire band seems to be a main instrument for the background
Athena/Minerva is the Greek virgin goddess of reason, intelligent activity, arts and literature. I had never heard of this Greek goddess before but what interested me about her was not only what she was a goddess of but her name Minerva. Minerva is the name of a professor in the Harry Potter book series (Minerva McGonagall) after reading all of the books it was clear that professor McGonagall is a very wise witch. After learning that Athena/Minerva is the goddess of wisdom I understood the reason behind professor McGonagall’s name, and not only her name but after further research finding out Athena is the goddess who turned a girl into a spider and professor McGonagall is the professor of transfiguration. I would like to learn more of what Athena did in war being the goddess of wisdom.
This performance consisted of a violin, a cello, and a piano. Oh my goodness! Where do I start with this performance? This was the most amazing performance of the night. The melody, the harmony, the crescendo, and decrescendo were perfectly played.
The oud is valued as the "prince of instruments" by the Arabs. All three instruments have strings, are classical by design, and produce melodic results when mastered. Could you select an instrument based on these similarities? Judaism, Islam, or Christianity -- all believe in an omniscient God, prophets, and life after death. Again, what similarities would affect your choice?
From its composition in the early history of the United States until now, The Star Spangled Banner has carried on a long tradition as America’s national anthem, depicting the patriotism and pride of its people. Since then, various artists have performed their own renditions of the original tune; modifications include rearranging melodic lines, adding harmonies, and changing texture or timbre, sometimes eliminating human voices altogether in favor of instrumentals, just to name a few. These alterations often have a significant effect on the expression of the music, and even two versions performed on the same instrument can sound dramatically different. As a result of variations in basic musical elements, the affect of trumpeter Kevin Gaffney’s
Rumi Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Rūmī commonly known as Rumi was a 13th century Persian poet and Sufi mystic. Rumi's importance is considered to transcend national and ethnic borders. His poems have been widely translated into many of the world's languages and transposed into various formats. In 2007, he was described as the "most popular poet in America. He was born in Persia to native Persian speaking parents in the village of Wakhsh.
In that regard (and in relation to Greenwood) we can begin to understand his creative brilliance by looking at his story. In modern music it is startlingly rare to find that a musician has been classically trained in their instrument of choice let alone trained in multiple instruments. Of course this statement is a bit leading as Greenwood himself is classically trained in multiple instruments. His classical training allows him to compose in the manner he has while his experience playing in an alternative rock band has given him a unique view of the way he writes music. The score for There Will Be Blood was recorded in it’s entirety at Abbey Road Studios in London, the same studio that The Beatles recorded their album “Abbey Road.” Greenwood wrote and recorded the score by himself.
The fact that so many books still name the Beatles as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" rock band ever only tells you how far rock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics are still blinded by commercial success. The Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest.
