Notes On The Choir

The room is this very narrow room with this ugly mustard color paint on the walls. I made the walls look better by putting acouple posters up of audrey huphure and colored christmas tree lights.you first walk in there are two barrows on the left and you may hit mine because it is right behind the door. My mirror is hanging on the back my the door. I broke my mirror by hitting my barrow. right next to my barrow is my roomates. on the right is another door to the bathroom, it is a two stall bathroom with dark and light blue tiles.

Margery was such a slob when she’d been drinking. She’d pick up fast food, but be so bombed that half the time she couldn’t find her mouth. Burger wrappers, nibs of French fries, and oozing condiment packets littered the floor of her posh Cadillac…probably the floor of her apartment, now, too, I thought in disgust. I mean, sure, the house was already shabby, but I was

Sitting in his pale and muted armchair, he twists, turns, and presses the buttons and knobs of his radio, with much determination. Ogden quickly glanced out of the window and was surprised to see rain and what looked like a storm forming. He the took a swift look at the clock on his desk. It was already six in the morning. With a sigh of defeat, once again he has to come to terms that it was another unsuccessful night. He was starting to hobble down the stairs with weary legs, ready to head to bed and sleep through the sunrise and awake at sunset, repeating his usual routine.

There was a relaxing feeling coming from the room. The colors were pretty mellow such as the cream-colored walls. Although the room gave off this aura, there was a very elegant tea set in the middle of the room. The wall contained a fireplace while the corner of the room contained a combination of both a bookshelf and a desk. The desk had a pair of golden glasses that belonged to one of the men who lived in the home (I can’t recall exactly who they belonged to). Aside from these things, the room also contained what looked like a very comfortable couch. The guide stated that all of the pieces in the house aside from one fireplace and most of the replicated sales pieces in the General Store.

Grainger's settings of The Sussex Mummers' Christmas Carol have existed in many forms. Originally composed for solo piano in 1911, Grainger later published a version for solo cello (or violin) and piano in 1916. At the time of his death in 1961 there was only an incomplete sketch of the tune orchestrated for Wind Band. In 1965 Edwin Franko Goldman published a "completion and scoring" of the work that is based upon Grainger's sketch, but varies considerably from the original composers length and harmonizations.

Crunching rocks filled the girl's ears as she woke up. Allison was unaware that she had ever fallen asleep. She opened her eyes and glanced at her phone, which had stopped playing music about an hour ago, based on the fact that it had reached the end of the playlist. "Wake up honey, we're here," Allison's mother whispered. Allison sat up straight and looked out her window. The sun was shining bright for the first time in ages. Allison suddenly spotted her friends walking their horses to the stables.

One cold and crisp Tuesday morning, Tommy wakes up at 6 o’clock to the sound of his alarm blaring. Papers scattered throughout his room, his laptop on his bedside table and his textbooks thrown all over the soft carpeting, Tommy’s room looks like an utter mess. He sits up, smacks the alarm clock to stop its harsh noise, and sighs loudly before hopping in the shower. After getting four hours of sleep, he would rather just go back to bed before going to school for the next eight hours.

She headed to the adjoining bathroom to wash up and change clothing. Trenor stood outside the door, waiting diligently for her to open it once she was done.

The sun was kissing the horizon; the day was just beginning, and the sweet sounds of the birds morning sound had awakened me. I was sitting in the same spot I do day after day, happy and well rested. I awoke from my peaceful slumber with a large, clanging chime that echoed off the walls and the roof. The sounds of footsteps stomped down the stairs, and there, as always, was Todd. And as he always does, he shuffled his way to the kitchen and turned on the coffee. Finally, as the aroma of burnt coffee grounds filled the air, a new day had begun.

Every year at Christmas, people who celebrate the holiday place emphasis on giving to those less fortunate than them and spending money on family and friends. The exception to that would be Ebenezer Scrooge, that is, before he was visited by three spirits. This past month, I read the book A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. For this analytical essay, I chose to write about a character from the novel and how the character has evolved from the start of the novel to the end. Ebenezer Scrooge, the protagonist of A Christmas Carol, has evolved throughout the story in that in the beginning, he despises Christmas, loves money, and turns people away from him; in the middle, when the three spirits come to him, he begins to repent his attitude and ways; and, in the end of the novel, he has fully changed and enjoys the Christmas holiday and gives to others.

There’s a bigger song emerging from the music wing this year, but even though the women’s choir has more than doubled from the 36 girls in the fall of 2012 to the 82 girls enrolled this fall, choir director Elliot Kranz said that teaching that many girls at one time isn’t any different than teaching any other ensemble. There are just more girls.

I love music and I have dedicated a lot of my time to what I love. I have been in the Children’s Chorus of Crane (CCC), played piano, and been in the Clarkson Golden Knotes a cappella group. From all of these musical experiences, I learned to become a better musician. I learned that the benefit of producing music outweighs the time and dedication I must put into it. I have experienced the satisfaction of performing music for other’s enjoyment. These are talents I will be able to take with me forever.

“The word “carry” must be eliminated from all our minds when we think of Ridge A Cappella Choir. That word “carry” actually has an extremely negative impact on our attitude towards making fabulous choral music.”

For this assignment, I decided to attend the NW Singers and Chamber Choir performance. The reason why I chose this option over the others is because I’ve always found organized vocal music to be very beautiful. Listening to music that uses only the human voice is striking and has a certain personal feel to it. I also feel that I can relate more to choir music, as I am in the choir at my church. This concert was directed by Ms. Susanne Spencer VanDyke, accompanied by Dr. Saundra Bishop on the piano.

B. Brief summary: Thomas wakes up in an ascending elevator surrounded by cold and darkness with no memory of his past. When the doors open a group of boys pulled him up to the Glade, a field surrounded by four enormous walls that open and closes. Outside the wall is the Maze with Grievers. Those are creatures of metal, designed by organization called Wicked. The boys, who are living in the Glade, have also no memories like Thomas.
