In the report, the reporter analyzed the music in Latin America as one of the music that has hybridity in it. For me, musics in Latin American does not really necessary shows hybridity since it doesn’t show new breed just by mixing one music from another music. Though Latin America has similar point of view in Africa’s music but it doesn’t necessary means that because two different cultures are somewhat related with each other, they already form a new music or genre. It is clearly stated in the report that it doesn’t really show new music but it just have…

    In life many people, groups, organizations make pacts with each other. When a person marries, a pact is formed or established between the two, man and woman. Most of the pacts are not fulfilled due to the group, individual or organizations not able to fully commit to living out the pact requirements. According to Civitas EU Facts, seventeen EU members who used the Euro funds to support their economy agreed to keep the amount of funds spending and borrow in control to assist with economic stability and growth of their respective country.

    The Concepts of Unity and VarietyLet's begin by listening to two fundamental concepts that make a piece of music "work"—the concepts of unity and variety. Most people like hearing sounds that they find pleasing, memorable, and familiar. Within a given composition, the feeling of familiarity—fostered by, among other things, reiterations of a music idea—lends a sense of unity to the music. Whereas unity satisfies the human need for sameness and familiarity, variety sustains our interest and appeals to our need for, and enjoyment of, the new, different, and unexpected.…

    “Little Louis” Armstrong was born — like so many who shaped American music — poor, black, and on the far side of the American Dream. His date of birth was August 4, 1901, although he believed that he was born on the Fourth of July, 1900. He never knew his father, who abandoned the family when Armstrong was an infant, and his mother, Maryann, worked at whatever jobs she could find, including prostitution. He grew up in Storyville, the violent red light district of the Crescent City, and learned about life from the pimps, gamblers, prostitutes, thieves, and other denizens of the streets who inhabited his childhood world. He went to the Fisk School for Boys, the same school that Buddy Bolden, the man credited with inventing jazz, had attended. He stayed in school until he was eleven, but finally abandoned academic pursuits to try and make his way on the streets. He worked for a Jewish merchant named Morris Karnofsky who showed the boy kindness and even advanced him five dollars to buy his first cornet from a pawnshop. Karnofsky understood that Armstrong had “music in his soul” and thought the boy might be able to become a musician.…
