It is the eleventh scene in the Italian fresco cycle by Giotto di Bondone’s “life of the virgin.” Joaquin’s “ave Maria,” a renaissance choral work, was a four-voice motet. This renaissance period demonstrated features of music art such as the, clear vocal, articulation. After using the Gregorian chant for the opening, he grounds the remaining part of the motet on a chant melody. The four voices then sing together Virgo Serena and generate closing punctuation of this section. Joaquin alters the textures using the contrast four, three, or two voices to create separate musical sections. Leonardo da Vinci painted the annunciation in Florence. This is a representation of the annunciation where angel Gabriel tells Virgin Mary that she would conceive and have Jesus. Greek art is vastly popular. “Orpheus” was Monteverdi’s first opera and used it to synthesize all the music genres that were available to him at the time. The main feature of the Orpheus’s is to be dramatically strong and melodically fascinating. At first, he is seemingly not conscious with his voice is almost monotonous.

...Argumentative essay Music and art are how a culture expresses its creativity. Creativity is the base of learning. In the past years neuroscientists have explored the way our brains perceive, and react to music and art, including studies of the relationship between musical experience and emotion, and between our auditory and visual systems. Public schools should provide music and art education because their students gain great benefits from it. They prepare students for success in school, work and life, by helping them to know themselves, and the world in general. Art and music education are essential to a well-rounded education. Its prepare students for success in school, work, and life. Art and music can increase student motivation, because students tend to enjoy them and feel the sense of accomplishment.

...Art may come in the form of painting, music, theater, cinema, dance and sculpture. Art is not limited to these categories, but these are the most common. As a child, my first exposure to art was in the form of music. Growing up in Western Kentucky, bluegrass played a large part of my life. My grandfather taught me to play the banjo and guitar starting at the age of 4. I first experienced painting in elementary school beginning in the 1st grade. Cinema has always been a part of my life, but I had not considered it art until I was able to properly define it. I experienced dance in high school while taking an elective ballroom dancing course for a semester. I have experienced theater, but not enough to form an opinion about it. Lastly, sculpture had a small influence when I briefly experimented with it in high school art classes. The most valuable and influential form of art to myself is music. Music has always been a large part of my life. In total, I play 5 instruments. Guitar is the primary instrument I choose to play. My grandfather taught me as a child and I have continued to play every day for many years. I began to perform at a young age in churches and community functions. Later, in high school I started a band with a few other local musicians and we played together for about 4 years. Currently I am in a band composed of all military members; we often play in different small venues in Las Vegas, Nevada. Without music, I would not fell like a complete person. It has played...

...I don’t think that art rock is pretentious or arrogant music at all. The type of music that an individual or a band chooses to create does not define their intelligence level or how well educated they are. The art rock is a genre that is just like any other genre of music that faces some negativity from different sections of people or fans. Art Rock gets the controversy because of the images of the bands or individuals and the message that they pass in their sings. The controversies however do not narrow down that the individuals are pretending or are not intelligent enough.it is just a new way of creating new music for the world and hence it should not be seen as if the bands or individuals are pretending in their passing of the message. For most of the artists that were involved rock, they hardly opened up about their actual sexual preference until later on in their careers. Much of their affiliation with homosexuality was actually assumed by the media, critics and their fans. Some of these assumptions were however proven to be correct when the artists later on actually came out as homosexuals but initially this had just been speculations. Early in glitter rocks artists’ expression about being homosexuals was part of their image, part of the wow factor and a way in which they would be able to receive more attention from the media for being something new different which might have received either good or bad reactions from their initial fan base.

...Amanda Medina AMST101 QUIZ #1 : Popular Music “Shake It Off” by Taylor Swift I choose this song because firstly, this song is one of the most popular song lately in America since the day it was released it was the #1 hit song on Billboard. For me personally, this song has a very catchy melody, where at first the band started of with an up-beat drum which could create a feelings of excitement. There are also a couple of repetition on the hook, 'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake I shake it off, I shake it off Heart-breakers gonna break, break, break, break, break And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake I shake it off, I shake it off So I think these repetition makes it easier for listeners to remember the song words, also the melody. Additionally, this song talks about a girl who’s brave, confident, happy and she doesn’t care about what people thinks on her. If we see from the lyrics, Taylor uses a different kinds of words in every new chorus which makes the song interesting and not boring. In some part of the song, she sings the melody into a slower and softer sound to show the feelings where she’s chill and just go with the flow of music she listens to, But I keep cruising.. Can't stop, won't stop moving.. It's like I got this music… In my mind, saying, "It's gonna be alright...

...downloaded and fully utilized apps. In a world that goes to the beat of the music it creates, Shazam allows the people of the world to identify exactly what beat they are moving to. Just open the app, hold it close enough to the speaker, and in seconds you have all of the information you need to find and download the song you have just been listening to. Sounds like the people of the world just got more in-tune with the music they are hearing. But the legacy of Shazam will not be to connect us more to the music, but, as Derek Thompson (author of The Shazam Effect) shows and author Sherry Turkle (Connectivity and its Discontents) would much agree, will be to put us into a purgatorial feedback loop, holding us back from both socialization and any further progression into whatever the next era of music and technology would hold for us. We no longer find music an appropriate excuse or reason to interact with new people or to start up a public discussion, causing us to form increasingly more anti-social habits. There is no more personal interaction or connection with the music and the artists making it. If we do not care about them, then why would they care about us? The creativity and love has been taken out of it, only to be replaced by the detrimental notion of quantity over quality. Think of the last time you were in a public social setting (ie: a restaurant, bar, public transportation, etc.). There was music playing, correct? Say a song were to come on that you really enjoyed yet...

...1) Describe the three basic types of music heard in original scores during the silent film era and cites specific examples from The Birth of a Nation. (10 points) There are three basic types of music heard in The Birth of a Nation. Each type serves it’s own purpose in the film. The first is adaptations of classical works. These adaptations are extended versions of the original classical piece of work. These adaptations are used for extensive action scenes. For example, Wagner’s Ride of the Valkyrie is the leitmotif for the Klu Klux Klan in the movie. The second type is arrangements of well-known melodies. These well-known melodies are used for emotional appeal. For example, “Dixie”, a very popular song of the South, is used to express Southern patriotism. Also, these well-known melodies were used to set a racist mood. A scene shows slaves dancing to “Turkey in the Straw”. Lastly, the third type is original music. The original music is used to reinforce the characters of the movie. For example, Elsie has a sweet, playful leitmotif. This theme implies her innocence. The original music in The Birth of a Nation is the strongest of the three types, composed by Joseph Carl Briel. 2) What is the role of source music in Casablanca? (10 points) The role of source music in Casablanca is in the development of the character Rick. The source music used is mostly American popular music. All the popular songs used are barrowed. The only exception is “Knock on Wood,” which was created specially...

...I feel, I can control how I cope with it. I have been working on turning this negative energy into art. Throughout my life, I have been drawn to music. When I began playing the violin at age seven, I was completely enamored by it. Even at a young age, the instrument captivated me. I adored the sound and the way my hands felt wrapped around it. I learned where the notes are and the mechanics of the instrument. It took a considerate amount of years until the unnatural contortions of my hands and fingers became second nature to me. But, that was not the most arduous task I had to achieve. Over the course of several years of diligent practice, I learned to pull the bow across the strings as my own voice. I will spend my entire life learning to convey the ideas, feelings, and thoughts in my head into physical movements that create the sound I desire. The...

The 21st century is known as the “era of anxiety”, and stress is one of the biggest problems when it comes to health of the modern man (Изapд, 199; Nadel, 2006). Although stress and anxiety are often used separately but it is crucial that the stress deals with emotions which includes anxiety and affects a person’s psychological well-being and overall body functions and health (Lazarus, 1999). While significant progress has been made in the development of both psychosocial and pharmacological treatments for people who have fallen victim to serious mental disorders but the number of people who have taken assistance from the available therapies is significantly low (Christian et al., 2013). Lack of motivation sometimes...

...getting rid of the music and art programs. How will kids who do not know how to show who they are besides in the things they do prove their feelings? Are they just supposed to not be able to show how they feel through their art and music. This will not do there are so many people who are misunderstood and the only way they know how to show what they are feeling is by drawing it or putting it into song. Do you really think that this should be taken away from them? Some people do not know how to show how they are actually feeling. They do not want anyone to worry about them so they hide how they feel and let it build up, but people like that do have ways of showing how they feel about something. Like painting and listening to or making music. There are many other things that can help people like this but most people go to these two things to help show how they feel. This is why it would be a good idea to keep the art and music classes....

...and 57 minutes from now (10:02:50 PM 24 March 2014), the first weekend of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival will commence. Ravers all around the globe have waited an eternity for this moment. 10 January 2014 at 10 AM, credit cards were at the ready as the battle for ticket claim commenced. Losing 435 dollars just for general admission and a shuttle pass never put a smile on someone’s face like Coachella could. Although, some did mourn their loss of settling for weekend two. Their fingers just did not type fast enough in the two minutes allotted to type in credit card information. They will now have to wait a total of seven extra days to witness raving in its glory. Tears roll down their face because they know weekend one is always better than weekend two. But who cares because at least they won’t be alone. Molly and Mary Jane will be their best friend. Weekend two will no longer be a drag. There’s no need to cancel the thousands of dollars total spent on a hotel, a plane ticket, transportation, food, and “free-spending money.” Oh wait! Most do not even need a hotel. Have you ever heard of a tent? Of course you haven’t! You, my friend, are just not a reincarnated flower child. You live a lifestyle of music with words. Ravers would not expect you to know what kindness, community, communal showering, and candy means. Oh, candy? Ravers make them weeks before music festivals. On top of the thousands spent they use more money to buy plastic and beads for bracelets...

...Music is Beautiful Art Art can be categorized as many different things, whether that’s movie productions, paintings/drawings, music productions, theatre performances, etc. “Tolstoy does not define art in terms of its ability to express form and beauty, but instead defines art in terms of its ability to communicate concepts of morality. For Tolstoy, aesthetic values are defined by moral values” (Tolstoy, Para. 1). Popular things that are considered to be art are usually paintings, moldings, etc., but there are plenty of other categories that is art. Art must have five attributes that all go hand in hand. Art must be beautiful, meaningful, flow, easily accessible, and requires talent. The R&B Soul Music category may not seem as art to some; but it in fact is art. Aaliyah’s album Age Aint Nothin But A Number, is relatable Art that speaks to the mind and soul. Her music speaks to the mind and soul simply because music is emotion. Emotions could be sadness, happiness, the feeling of love, etc. One allowing themselves to open up to...
