Music Appreciation
Casual Listening
The piece of music that really attracts my attention these days is the song named We Own It. I first heard this piece of music when I was sitting in the cinema and watching Fast and Furious 6 on Monday night. It is one of the official soundtracks of the film, owned by Wiz Khalifa. What really captured my attention, at the very beginning, was its rhythm. I felt really excited and I was kind of obsessed with it. Therefore, I did some research about this piece of soundtrack after I finished the movie. I found it on YouTube and literally played it for a whole afternoon. This song is awesome.
The song is written by Wiz Khalifa and sung by Wiz Khalifa and 2 Chainz. It has become a big hit when the movie was released. I think its passionate and strong rhythm makes it perfect for Fast and Furious 6.
As I mentioned, its rhythm captured my attention at the very beginning. It was passionate in fast pace, which could make people feel so excited. After I played it for over three times, I started paying attention to its lyrics. Honestly, I was motivated. I noticed some details in its lyrics. For instance, the most impressive one, in my opinion, is “I never feared death or dying, I only fear never trying.” I shall count it as a personal favor. Literally, I had also felt the passion. It made me feel like I find the friend who truly knows me. Of course, it deeply affected my mood. It reminds me my code-never stop chasing.
Personally, I think I will categorize the music as rap or hip-pop. It has an up tempo and rhythmic beat, which makes the reason for its popularity. Also, Wiz Khalifa and 2 Chainz speak lyrically.
Referential Listening
The piece I chose to evaluate for Referential Listening is Etude in C Minor, written by Frédéric Chopin. This is one of Chopin’s popular etudes, bringing the first collection of etudes to a stirring conclusion. The term “etude” has long been used to describe pieces of difficult technical, focusing on practicing a specific
