Song Had A Meter Listen To Jazz Trumpet
701 wordsBefore I arrived at the Regatta Bar, I had no idea what to expect. To be completely honest, I was a bit hesitant going out on the town to listen to jazz. It's true that we listen to jazz every Monday and Wednesday in class, but the thought of sitting around jazz enthusiasts was intimidating. I felt like I wouldn't belong, as if I wasn't going to be qualified enough to be in their presence. However, everything changed after I stepped over the threshold to the Regatta. I quickly realized that it h...

5 Th Century Bc Sophocles And Euripides
1,506 wordsWinter squalls are drained out of the sky. The violet season of flowering spring smiles. The black earth glitters under green lawns. Swelling plants pop open with tiny petals. Meadows laugh and suck the morning dew, while the rose unfolds. The shepherd in the hills happily blows the top notes of his pipe. The gathered gloats over his white kids. Sailors race across the thrashing waves. Their canvas full of the harmless breeze. Drinkers acclaim the grape-giver Dionysus, capping their hair with fl...

The Celtic Voice In Walter Scotts Waverley
1,128 wordsThe Celtic Voice in Walter Scott's 'Waverley' One aspect of this novel which may not have received its due attention is Scott's emphasis on the strength and vitality of traditional Scottish culture, especially folk poetry and music. The presence of such an element is hardly surprising, in as much as Scott's first important literary work was an edition of Scottish folk ballads ('Minstrelsy of the Scottish Border', 1803).

Rhythm And Blues White And Black
1,818 wordsRap Music is not music but it is a cleverly marketed euphemism disguised to give the obnoxious noise societal legitimacy. Describing the (disenchanting) chanting of Rap Music as singing or as music is indeed (in either case) a capital misnomer. Real Music is the careful arrangement of organized sounds in the form of notes that then result in a smooth blend of rhythm, tone, and pitch that when united, is quite pleasing to the ear. Rap is not music. The unpleasant-sounding horror is chaotic disson...
