Humorous Wedding Speech: My Love With Music
When we first were aware that our theme would be “That One Thing” It struck a chord in my heart, because, I love that song, and I almost immediately chose music to be my “One Thing”. Though now I was faced with a tougher challenge, writing a speech about all of us. It would have to somehow relate to music.
It finally struck me again, almost everyone in our confirmation class can play an instrument or has a deep love with music. I know I have a deep rooted love with music. I've been writing heavy metal lyrics since 7th grade.
I constantly practice guitar; I'm listening to every little nuance and somehow managing to fix it. I self produce home made dance songs. If you were to walk into my room, on my desk you would find a small keyboard, a mixing board, a laptop with a music software running and 3 guitars hanging from a four-way guitar stand. You would see a small amp and effect pedals that some of your favorite musicians might just be using.
I work with other musicians all the time. On Fridays my best friend Alfredo comes over to help me fix problems with my next dance song. I go to school and talk music with my friends and how mad certain forms of the heavy metal genre make me.

I remember having to listen to her practice almost every night. Though now she hates the trumpet I still think it was one of the reasons I ever got into guitar because my sister had the determination for three years to play the trumpet. Though now I've progressed much farther than a person who has been playing for one year should, I still wish I could have said thank you to Aryn for giving me the determination to play an instrument in a less cheesy way, I still would like to say, thank you,

I spent a while focusing on each of these from a young age growing up, at one point all I played was an electric guitar.

    I was a percussionist during my high school tenure. As a school musician during my freshman year, I was in the high school band at both Northwest Christian and Dayton Christian.

    Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve observed people playing music around me. My family is musically inclined, which I believe is the reason I’ve been drawn to it. In 2006, I began taking guitar lessons but I never had much interest in playing. Things changed in 2009, and I wished to be different. I wanted to be good at something so I began to teach myself guitar and have stuck with the guitar until now. In 2010, I began to play on my church’s worship team and I enjoyed it very much. I have now been a worship leader for the past four years and it’s something I love to do. I love it so much that for the past two years I have gone to Camp Electric to improve my skills. Camp Electric is a rock and roll music camp where musicians pick an instrument and they participate in workshops with that instrument. This camp is filled with people who love music and who love playing music. I have such a passion for playing that I have begun teaching guitar lessons and now I am expressing music with my patients in order to achieve a goal.…

    A Choral Tapestry

    It’s funny how flexible and versatile music is. Music is thrash metal emanating from a pair of iPod headphones, with the intent of getting someone motivated for a long workout, and a soothing lullaby sung by a mother to her child. Music is the sunny chirpings of pretty morning melodies by the birds, and the soft pitter-patter of rain—nature’s music. And on May 4th, music was the choirs of CLC putting together all of the hard work of the semester for the few who are willing to listen. For me, choir music was always to be heard, but never to actually be listened to for any enjoyment. But that night, I was one of those willing few. Attending the College of Lake County Spring Choral Concert made me realize how essential it is to recognize the beauty in versatility in music.…

    During my 6th grade year, I sparked an interest in the music world. I had attended a football game in which my brother played. It was my first time being at one of these games so when halftime was announced, I did not know what to expect. The band took their place on the field and started to play piece after piece. I was fascinated with how one stuck to a certain instrument and played it with ease. After the final song, they received a round of applause and headed back towards the stand. Throughout the rest of the game I was no longer to focus on the game that was taken place before me. I was intrigued…

    Lastly, music has become something that has taught me the importance of leadership, teamwork and friendship. It taught me that leadership isn't about telling others what to do. Leadership is about helping others and being someone other look up to. Music helped me become friends with people I had never talked to before, making them now my best friend. It helped me create a harmony between each and every person in my choir to show our full…

    Walking into the band room for the first time, the sound of every instrument being poorly played by fourth graders suffocated the room. The squeal of saxophones and blaring bass of tubas made it impossible to hear the instructions being given by the band director. However, none of that mattered to me. All I could do was to stare at the only thing in the room that was able to grasp my attention: a shiny, red drum set. I migrated to the back corner of the room where it sat unoccupied, took my place on the stool, picked up some sticks, and immediately felt at home. At that moment, it was clear to me that playing music was what I was meant to do.…

    Over the many years these activities have been a part of it, music and dance have influenced my life in a positive way. Both type of arts are very demanding. They require long hours of practice a day, which teaches you a lot of about perseverance, and time management. Music and dance have also given me opportunities for community service. The Orange County Ballet Theatre puts on The Nutcracker every December. After it ends, we dance for three separate nursing homes, which is always a pleasure for the residents. The Advanced Dance Company at NFA does community events as well including, two separate trips to Fostertown to dance and help out with the younger elementary students and hosting a dance benefit to raise money for a young girl with medical problems. In addition to this, I altar serve at my church on Sundays, teach oboe lessons at GAMS, and have attended two separate science fairs for volunteer work.

    Music is my passion. It is a powerful way for me to speak my feelings and ideas. Shakespeare wrote likewise: “When words fail, music speaks.” At times my words have failed, and my feelings have been left unspoken, but my music is a way for me to say and create what my words cannot express. When I sit at the piano, I’m genuinely excited to practice, because I feel music is a world of infinite, heavenly expression. My love of music has driven me to compose several pieces, learn fluent improvisation, and master a long repertoire. I have been influenced by my passion for music in mathematical, linguistic, spiritual, emotional, and artistic ways. Advantageous to the brain and spirit, music will aid me with all of my college pursuits. When I discovered…

    Music Is My Life

    Music has an influence on our lives each and every day. We listen to music day in and day out and sometimes just listening to the right song at the right time can actually make a difference. I grew up in a very musical environment, and every time when I would feel down or not myself music tend to reel me back in to reality. Not all people are into music but if you’re like me music affects your life in a serious manner. Music tends to get me through everything I go through in life. There are different genres of music out there pop, country, hip-hop, contemporary Christian etc. and each and every tune and songs that has been established, conveyed a certain deep important meaning in its lyrics. When life tends to knock me down music has a way of uplifting and encouraging myself to try harder and never give up. It’s a way for me to cope through everything that is good and bad that goes on in this world. My favorite kind of music to listen to whenever I need inspiration is contemporary Christian because not only does it keep me going but it pushes to me have more faith and trust in myself and the things I do. Sometimes I’ll arrive to a status in my life where I’ll feel stuck and don’t know what I’m capable of, music pulls me through it. It’s that soothing sound and that inspirational lyric that helps me realize who and what I am and where I should be standing through the midst of changes. Just as some people have something to be of meaning in their lives I have music to fall into. Music is my life and soul. The beat of the music awakens my heart, the rhythm or the note in a song enables my mind to connect to my heart and it leads me to where I’ve always wanted to go. Although I am pretty much an amateur in writing and conducting music I am able to connect to the world and those around me whenever I hear that one perfect song that can raise my spirit to a full velocity. Music can either inspire me or it can sometimes remind me of something or…
