Ken Burns Jazz Video Analysis

One main difference I noticed between “Josie” and “Dr. Jazz” was that “Josie” is much more mellow in tone, though both have laid back vibes because one one instrument is used, compared to “Dr. Jazz” which is very much a big band song. Tempo wise, both songs are pretty similar though not exactly the same, but both genres can vary just as much tempo wise between songs. The texture in “Dr. Jazz” is much thicker, but with a smooth feel of the instruments because of all the instruments making the song that much more intricate in general. In “Josie”, the texture is very much one layer and thin in general because it is only the one instrument and the artist singing.

My opinion about this video is that it has a unique type of combination of instruments with harmony among all of them. Hendrix was playing and singing with emotions all the time and I saw this while he was playing his electric guitar closing his eyes. He seemed to be a left handed person because he plays the guitar

That Deadman Dance by Indigenous Australia novelist Kim Scott is an exploration into the cultural divide between black and white men in post-colonial Western Australia. Scott’s publishing history demonstrates a singular and thoughtful approach to discussions about indigenous culture, including language reclamation. issues around the damage, protection, and evolution of culture, as well as the importance of language in acts of colonisation and resistance, form the foundation of That Deadman Dance. In the novel, Scott imagines a contact history between Noongar people and non-indigenous people (both British settlers and American whalers) in an imagined landscape closely inspired by his hometown, Albany, and the surrounding area on the south-east coast of Western Australia.

We all hear about what a teacher did on social media that was inappropriate all over the internet. But we never really hear about the good things. I read an article in Scholastic, about a teacher named Christopher Casal who a technology teacher for an Elementary school in Brooklyn that uses social media in his classroom and the kids are learning from it. Casal works as a technology teacher for the Magnet School of Math, Science and Design Technology. He has taught for many years and decided to bring Twitter into his classroom. Twitter is a social media website where you can make posts that contain 120 characters that can tell others in a few words are doing or thinking. Casal had the brilliant idea of bringing Twitter into his second grade

Jazz Critique Video #1 The YouTube channel Jazz at Lincoln Center posted a video of an Untamed Elegance concert. According to their description of the video, it was composed by Victor Goines and performed October 28, 2016 at the Rose Theater. The video is approximately fifty three minutes long and includes key jazz instruments that were played by extremely talented musicians.

He also liked Prince for the way he could switch up his style he said he felt like he could be anything he wanted and he could do anything he put his mind to. He can be a very inspirational being to those who love musical instruments and like the sound of smooth jazz. The things that were going on in the video were things such as Miles Davis and his band playing the song So What with the following instruments: Trumpet, Saxophone, Drums, Piano, and an Upright Bass. This is the end of my essay on Miles Davis and the Sounds Of

Ever since I joined jazz band in 8th grade, I have been inspired by the freedom and edginess of jazz music. I joined junior jazz band at North Kingstown High School freshman year knowing that it would be difficult for me to succeed as flutist in this genre of music, but I only grew more and more attached. Sophomore year, I enrolled in your Jazz Music Through the Decades class where you opened up my eyes to the wonders of Glenn Miller, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, and many more, who are among my favorite artists now. I cannot forget "Grinnin' In Your Face" by Son House. That song was stuck in my head for weeks and weeks after I first heard it. I have grown to develop a never ending passion for jazz that I want to build up even more.

The piece in this concert that made the strongest impression on me was A Potter’s Song by Maria Schneider. The overall concert exhibited typical qualities of a jazz band. There was an eclectic selection of music from very upbeat, jovial jazz music to serene, peaceful jazz music.

Jimmy Stewart was a man of considerable acting skills, and appeared in countless movies which are highly regarded in the industry. In 1936, he was 28 years old, and appeared in eight movies that year alone, including The Thin Man, and so we have the problem with Born To Dance, and to sum it up, I ask, "what was he thinking." The thought of Jimmy Stewart acting and singing in a musical feels quite puzzling, and unbelievable. I might not protest so hardily except that he's terrible at singing--something he admits to in a later interview (video below trailer).

There's not much music from then and it's the weirdest thing. You realize that not even 100 years ago their music was so limited. You can kind of hear familiar sounds as to where our music maybe has come from. But also doing the research helps. Like when Carson says he worked the chuck wagons for the railroad, looking back at what chuck wagons were, they were the food trucks of that time. So looking back to see what that looked like and how the kitchen was setup on a chuck wagon is fun! Playing a period piece is a whole different thing. You get to look at the history and see how things used to be and I really like that!

In the audience, people swayed to the sound of the music and rhythm. Feeding off this energy, the two women closed their eyes and play their corresponding instruments. I think the most common characteristic I saw of those watching was how memorized they looked. I can attest; I as well felt captured within the melody of the music.

Sam Smith music video Smith would be considered as the narrator of this narration because at the beginning of the video it creates a succinct story before the musical part of the video begins and throughout the video there are clips of Smith singing that they cut through to jump back to the narration of the story. There are three main characters in this video Sam Smith, Glee’s star Dianna Agron and Chris Messina from The Mindy Project’s, Agron and Messina is the married couple in this story and Smith looks like he is singing in the same bar Messina goes to, to meet his lover this creates a dramatic irony because it relates to the specific points of the music video. On the other hand he looks like he is performing at the bar because of the red

Miles Davis’ Kind of Blue is the single biggest selling jazz album ever made, selling over 5 million copies, and was my favorite to learn about. It is known to be one of albums that convert people to liking jazz styled music, even though it was created over fifty years ago. The most significant part of the album to me was that it made such an impact on the jazz community and it was only made in seven hours and all but only one of the tracks were first takes. What has stuck with me in the documentary was the saying, “The first thought is the best thought.” I really appreciated this because the artist stuck with their initial first gut feeling. The music was really innovative and most specifically, the opening of “So What”, was completely improvised and then the riff takes off, allowing to be one of the most iconic songs in jazz (in my opinion). The magic of music was truly created in this album creation and led a different direction of jazz creation.

The Tom Lennon video goes to show that in the field of business and entrepreneurship, you have to look at everything as a company, and also be the most pleasant person in the world to interact with. Even in acting and writing, in Hollywood, you have to understand how to survive the business aspect of things, how to get hired and how to be hired again if you get fired. But I feel like the biggest message in the video is that of understanding the risks and accepting them as part of the possibility of major profit. That business is exactly that, and is about making money above all else. That part of success is failure, and that it's possible you'll fail and be set back over and over, but with hard work and doing things in an educated way, you

Money can make a man move, in the sense that a man is fascinated by money which opens up different opportunities and becomes the ultimate source for majority of people for survival. Not that it is not true, without any doubt majority of people are attracted to money and it becomes a necessity when the needs of an individual are not met. In today’s world, with exceedingly high standards of living most people would like to have a job that is stress free, money that comes easily, without having to struggle, or at the least have a piece of mind that there is always money available for them. To solve this issue and not to face any problem with cash in hand they look for options which can make them rich, live a better and stress free life and when needed take a break and plan for vacation.
