First of all James Swearingen got a pretty good college education.

Jazz is one of the many styles of music, prominent today. On of the most notable contributors to the Jazz style is Count Basie, a now world renowned artist of his time. Count Basie was born in Red Bank, New Jersey, on August 21, 1904. His path to music started early, as his mother (Lillian Childs Basie) began to teach him how to play the piano at a young age. His father (Harvey Lee Basie) in addition to being a groundskeeper, also played the mellophone, and as such, Basie grew up in a musically inclined household.
Bach-Brahm Project Concert No.1 Did you know that Joel Schoenhals, Professor of piano at Eastern Michigan University, is a foreign expert at Central China Normal University in Wuhan, Hubei, China? I was able to attend his Bach-Brahm Project Concert on September 23rd in Pease Auditorium at Eastern Michigan University, not only to enjoy the music, but to hear and understand the piano in different major and minor keys on a professional level. It mainly focused on him playing the piano and gave really interesting facts about piano music history. In this paper, I will be discussing what the different major and minor keys signify for each different mood, the two main composers Joel Schoenhals played, and how this event relates to my UNIV and speech class. I had intermediate knowledge going into this event because I was a former aristocrat in high school and had to listen and perform in different major keys.
By age fifteen, he knew how to play the clavichord; his brother, who was Pachelbel’s student, taught him.

Bach continued to grow in his musical ability and eventually left to Arnstadt; his great-uncle Heinrich died, leaving an opportunity for Bach to be the new musician at the church.

The harpsichord part develops as a revelation than an evolution: The centrality of the harpsichord part is suggested early, but only becomes obvious once the rest of the ensemble has quieted. This reading is incompatible with McClary 's claim that the harpsichord 's emergence and so-called hijacking of the work represents the rise of the bourgeoisie because that would suggest the bourgeoisie had always had a stronghold on economic and political power that suddenly decided to reveal itself. An important qualification on my rejection of McClary 's interpretation is that my reading of the work depends highly on visual elements and possibly stylistic choices of the recording and performers. For example, the choice to show the pan frequently to the harpsichordist as in Excerpt 1 highlights the harpsichordist 's hands in masterful control both corroborate my view of the harpsichordist in contrast to McClary 's. More generally, this disparity problematizes many aspects of interpreted historical works of music by suggesting that such interpretations depend not only one 's individual experience with the work but also the stylistic choices of the people interpreting it removed from its original context. Without Bach behind the harpsichord, both the character he plays as the harpsichordist and how we should interpret the
Richard Strauss was born June 11, 1864 in Munich, Germany. He was born into a wealthy and accomplished family. His mother was an heiress of the Pschorr Symphony brewing Dynasty, which was a famous German Beer. I guess we can assume that Richard was destined to be a musician, being that his father, Franz Joseph Strauss was considered one of the best French horn players of his time; he was the principal horn player of Munich Court Orchestra and was recognized as Germany’s leading virtuoso of the instrument. His father’s talents came to his advantage.
Both J.S. Bach and G.F. Handel use different aspects of music to compose important pieces of music. The baroque period is often known as the time when artists exaggerated their motion and produced drama through interpreted detail. Both of these composers used this baroque style to convey messages through their music. The similarity in their music was that it is in a spiritual manner. J.S. Bach’s style was a harmonic and motivation manner, which Handel’s is more of a narrative.

5. Give a brief overview of Isaac Newton's lifetime achievements and pursuits. Isaac Newton was extremely odd and mostly unsociable, but he was undeniably brilliant. Some of his experiments were questionable, like staring at the sun or sticking a needle in his eye socket just to see what would happen, but he still managed to produce some of the most genius ideas. As a student, he was unhappy with the taught methods of doing math, so he invented calculus.
Furthermore, Bach’s little fugue in G minor with its heavily ornamented segments set against a more subdued base served as a platform to showcase the talent of the organist. This fugue was not meant to be a simple chamber piece like Canon in D. it was meant to impress the audience and showcase the prowess of both the composer and
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was probably one of the most well-known German writer, playwright, poet around the world. Oftentimes he was also considered to be one of the most outstanding figures in the field of world literature. Even as a teenager grew up in China, I have heard and seen his name mentioned others. What Goethe meant most to me back then, was probably not more than just a great talented German writer. Ever since I really read his work for the class in German, I was immediately amazed by the beauty that lies within his wording that, just that cannot be translated into other languages.
