Choir Music History

Examples include the Brahmagupta- Fibonacci identity, the Fibonacci search technique, and the Pisano Period. Beyond mathematics, namesakes of Fibonacci include the astroid 6765 Fibonacci and the art rock band, The Fibonaccis.

Show Choir is an elective class that integrates choreography into the choral experience. A varied repertoire of 2 and 3 part music is memorized, choreographed and then performed in a concert setting. Vocal technique, developing the ensemble and dance are the main emphasis of this class. Various

College can provide an opportunity for personal development, possibly through joining a college choir or a singing club. Because of having participated in choir for the past seven years, giving it up altogether after high school would be a devastating, especially because it often puts me in a positive mood for the day. I’ve also learned about group communication from choir; you must all listen to each other carefully to match pitches and tones. You also have to communicate and collaborate reading music, and I really enjoy

Since the eighth grade I have been involved in choir in some way. I love it so much and and spent countless hours dedicated to my favorite thing in the world. My favorite part about it was show choir; the singing, the dancing, I was exstatic and always felt like I had found the place where I belong.

I experienced the joy of choir for 8 years starting in fourth grade. Ever since I was little, I looked up to all of the students in the high school choir and knew that I aspired to be as good as them one day. My goal was to make the varsity choir and the Texas All State Choir. My freshman year is when I started the process of high school choir and has taught me many lessons beneficial to my future success.

I had the privilege of going with the DBC High School choir on a mission trip for a week last month, and it was an experience I had never had before. There were almost 100 total people on the trip, and we had two buses that took us everywhere that week. This included 5 different hotels, fast food restaurants, two churches, one flash mob at a mall, and seven different juvenile detention centers or children’s homes. There were many hours of travel, lots of late nights doing bible study, and many times of putting up and breaking down risers, speakers, and microphones, whether we liked it or not. I have to say this was one of the most physically, spiritually, and mentally challenging weeks of my life.

Here is the history behind musical theater. The art of telling stories either through or with songs and music dates back far in time. We know that ancient Greeks included music and dance in their stages of comedy and tragedies as early as the 5th century B.C. We know that Aeschylus and Sophocles composed their own music during that time while Athenian playwrights may have interpolated existing songs. Roman actors attached metal chips called "sabilla" to their stage footwear; which became the first tap shoes. In the 12th and 13th centuries, during the Middle Age, there was also a tradition of religious dramas, such as The Play of Herod and The Play of Daniel. Intended as liturgical teaching tools set to church chants, these plays developed into an autonomous form of musical theatre. By the 1700s, musical theater has made an huge impact on France, Great Britain, and Germany.

I had my first choir concert last night, I think I did good myself. My voice didn’t scratch which i’m very surprised. The bad thing that i did was get extremely nervous because of a certain someone that judges. I was scared of being judged, plus when our first song started I couldn’t stop laughing, I was laughing for about the first 15 seconds of the song, only because of my nervousness. Overall I think i did great.

The ratio between two Fibonacci numbers is very close to the golden ratio, which is 1+521.61803399. The table and graph below demonstrate this. In the table, I found the ratios by dividing a Fibonacci term by the one before it and then subtracted that from the golden ratio to find the deviation. For example, consider the third Fibonacci term, 2, and the second term, 1. The ratio between the two is 21=2. The deviation from the golden ratio is 2-1.61803399=0.38196601.

By Milton Babbitt, they both agree that complexity, which “reduces the redundancy of” music takes big part to bring people’s likes. Like Russolo mentioned about the “predominant rhythm” and “predominant pitch” and the variety of “timbre of noises” while he explained about the use of noises in music, Babbitt also talked about the importance of the “five-dimensional musical spaces” which are “pitch-class, register, dynamic, duration, and timbre.” They both concerned about the “death of music”, however, in Russolo’s case it was more specifically the delay of progress in music. Music, for both Russolo and Babbitt, was an art which “new” was always open and possible to be discovered and which could be put into by man’s hand to create auditive

Church music in the ninth-century, namely, the Gregorian Chant, was, as Matthews, Platt and Noble note, monophonic7 and lacked instrumental accompaniment.8 Similarly, Greek music was monophonic, even though the melody was ornamented by instruments.9 This, however, did not last long in isolation during the ninth-century, since a basic form of polyphonic10 music developed.11 This polyphonic music that developed was called Organum in which a principal voice or main melody is duplicated at a fifth or fourth below by a harmonic voice called the organal voice.12 Moreover, the rise of polyphony continued to develop in the twelfth-century and onward into more complex forms, but retained the basic principal.13 Furthermore, developing in the thirteenth-century as an addition to organum, polyphonic conductus was homo-rhythmic but contained up to four voices with the tenor often being newly composed rather than adapted from a chant.14 Although these developments did not see influence from Greek music, they are, nevertheless, a continuation on Greek forms of complex modal melodies that the Gregorian Chants had been influenced by. Thus, polyphonic music was built on the Gregorian Chant, but made possible the beginnings of harmonious music that, consequently, influenced all of Western

In varsity choir there are five different types of singers, base, tenders, altos, soprano two's, and finally the soprano one's. Together they make an amzing sound. Their are also a lot of types of teacher who contribute to this sound. There are the teachers, the voice teachers, and the president. The president is an eighth grade student who made a video to try out for the lead student to help are choir director. There are also a lot of different people involved with choir. Teachers kids and parents, as you can see in choir there are many different things going

I've always had a heart for show choir. I've attended Show Times since I was a kid watching my cousins perform. I've been to every single invitational and love to watch all of the groups. I competed in the El Paso Idol during corn fest 2 years in a row. I even made a Christmas CD with my sister to hand out to my friends and family for a gift. When I gave one to my music teacher at the time, Mrs. Nix, she allowed me to sing the song Happy Birthday Jesus at our Christmas concert. I have also sang solos at St. Jude Benefits, duets with my sister at Mother Daughter tea parties, worship at church, and helped lead children's church for many years. I have been involved in every show choir camp that has been offered by the music department. I also took piano lessons and look forward to starting again this summer. As for dancing I took jazz and hip hop dancing at a very young age. I also took 2 years of jazz in middle school.

Fibonacci sequence is one of the most famous and perhaps the most interesting number patterns in mathematics. Far from being just a curiosity, this sequence recurs in structures found throughout nature - from the arrangement of whorls on a pinecone to the branches of certain plant stems. Other than nature, numerous examples of the Fibonacci sequence as well as its derivative, the Golden Ratio can be found in art, a stock market, and other areas of society and culture. In the paper, some of the interesting facts of Fibonacci number are discussed.

Despite the term “ Golden Ratio” being heard and seen more frequently in the past 50 years or so, The Golden Ratio is not a recent discovery. In fact, it was first studied by the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid (mid- 4th century BC). He first recorded the definition of the Golden Ratio in Euclid’s Elements. The definition translates to “extreme and mean ratio”.
