The pops concert at Sartell High School took place at 7:30 p.m. in the auditorium‚ and the concert band performed four pieces. The first song played was Pippin. At the beginning of the song not everyone was playing the same dynamic‚ but when it got to the first transition everyone was balanced. After there was a new melody‚ there were occasional parts when one section stood out more. Those sections eventually fixed their dynamic. The next dynamic that could have been fixed was‚ the trumpets

I could have never predicted that my life would come crashing down on a hot summer day at the Nautica Courts. It was the final round of the local rap battle tournament. My opponent had just delivered a killer freestyle that destroyed any hopes of a comeback. It was a fatal blow. An effortless pun on my clearance-bought clothes and my braces would forever brand me as a clown. The crowds taunts swamped me in humiliation. My opponent’s intimidating stare solidified his clear win. A shiver went down

As I went and watched the Fall Choral Concert directed by Dr. Jeffrey Benson‚ I have enjoyed the most wonderful concert with all the amazing performances ever.

Stars. Despite the beat remaining steady and consistent‚ it sounded very much as if it were a celebration. The many timbres of different woodwinds‚ the vocals‚ and the bongos really mixed well. At times‚ the vocalists would improvise and literally rap or even state phrases‚ but it would still mix well with the overall beat‚ dominated by the bongo drums. The next piece played was La Sonora Poncena’s “A La Patria Mia” in the album Opening Doors. Likewise with the past musical pieces including vocals

I saw The Santa Fe Big Band 22nd‚ Annual Evening of Jazz Concert. The band was dressed up all matching. The men were wearing black dress shirts and pants‚ with dress shoes. The women wearing black formal dresses with red shoes. They all looked very professional and when they started playing it immediately took me back to the 1930s‚ the big band era. Most of the songs were of long length and with many solos through the songs. The instruments used to create the songs were: saxophones‚ trombones‚ trumpets

The Media’s deceptive characterization of Rap Music If the average person is asked to picture an image of a rapper‚ images of a man with his body covered in tattoos‚ wearing gold chains with smoke pouring out of his mouth and swearing to every second word he says would be some of the first things to come to his or her head.

In the mid 1980’s‚ the music industry was shaken up with the birth of gangster rap. Artists such as Schoolly D and N.W.A produced hits such as "PSK What Does It Mean" and "F**k Tha Police." This new music genre portrayed images of gangs‚ guns‚ violence‚ and sexism‚ yet it was well received and became very popular in the span of just a few years. By the early 1990’s‚ gangster rap had a home at the top of the charts. Some of the artists responsible for this were Dr. Dre and Eazy-E‚ both former members

"Obviously rap music is too violent. It serves as a musical accompaniment to the entire underclass culture of violence‚" says the author of "See No Evil"‚ David Klinghoffer‚ in an article in the National Review. This extremely narrow minded philosophy has neglected to discover what rap music really is and what it means to its millions of buyers‚ who are mostly of upper-class status.
