    Kurt Jooss’ “The Green Table” and Alvin Ailey’s “The Revelations” are both over half a century old and still remains to this day one of the most timeless masterpieces of dance in history. Their elaborate combinational display of music, dance, and rhythm was able to tell us a story without the use of any words. This collaborative combination was able to create a powerful and insightful perspective on what they were trying to articulate. The revelations captured the pain, determination, and valour of the African Americans at the time. Ailey used a very religious, divine, and prayerful mood and point of view throughout the whole dance. While The Green Table aimed at showing people how futile war is and how it affects people and society. Jooss used the satirical and cynical perspective, as well as the method of expressionism.…

It looks smooth and sexy, yet the sound is rich and strong.

    Piano Trio in G Minor, Op. 15, is the first of several pieces of music to be inspired by a tragedy in Smetana’s life. Spurred by the death of his beloved daughter Bedřiška (1851-1855), “an extraordinarily gifted child, [Smetana was inspired] to compose [his] chamber work in 1855.” (Large 65) The trio starts with feelings relating to Smetana’s anguish, followed by a dedication to the memory of his daughter torn between her life and death, and ending with a movement that gives eventual closure to Smetana’s loss.…

    The guitar is over 3,300 years old, as noted on Wikipedia, and it is still one of the most want to learn instruments out there today. There are 19 different types of guitars, but these 19 different types are grouped into 2 main groups, acoustic and electric. Some people would argue, because there is not a group for acoustic electric guitars, which is obviously a little of both of these groups. Electric guitars, introduced in the 1930s, rely on an amplifier that can electronically manipulate tone. Early amplified guitars were hollow body, but a solid body was found more suitable. For more than forty years, Fender guitars and amps have had a great influence on the way the world writes, listens to, and plays music.…
