Taxi Chain Essay

To begin, the idea of this event spawned from the brain of the Music Department chair Marshall Kimball in his proposal for the Leader in Residence program. Initially a small event for arts advocacy, the bash blossomed into a community wide event with three stages of live entertainment, fantastic art displays, and a number of children’s activities all for free. As the event grew into its final product, the People’s Bank Theatre cooperated quite nicely with the music department to ensure success, whether it be passing out flyers in the program for other shows or providing the performers a comfortable space

In a large city, full of diverse people, finding a musical performance is not hard to come by. Luckily, as I was searching online for different performances I ran across The Flex Crew performing at Skully’s music diner. I have been to Skully’s once before to watch a folk band perform. The atmosphere was a lot different than when we saw The Flex Crew. Obviously, the genre of music was a lot different, along with the atmosphere of the crowd. I was very surprised by the number of people in the bar that evening. Mostly, because the performance started at 11PM and the world series was on. On top of this, online their website said the show began at 10PM, but like a very great band they came out at their own pace. In the meantime, there was a DJ performing to keep the crowd alive. The Flex Crew is a reggae band from the Columbus area. After doing a little research I learned they are known as “the best reggae band in the Midwest.”

On Tuesday, April 12th 2016 I went to Chris Jazz Café to see a live Jazz performance from three young artists; Dave D’Arville the Temple Jazz Guitarist, Alex Cross the Pianist, Mat Campbell was on the Bass and Phil Arrington was on the Drums. The show started at 7 pm and ended at 10 however, at 8:30 there was an intermission. Chris Jazz café was on a little block called Sansom Street, at first it was hard to find because the hotel parking sign covered the Jazz sign. When you first walk in, the hosts greet you and ask if you want to sit near the stage or in the back a one of the high-top tables. The atmosphere of the place was really nice, it was good vibes and so relaxed; the café felt safe to be alone that evening.

The concert I went to was The Sue Palmer and the Motel Swing Quintet on March 14th at Tio Leo’s in Linda Vista. Within the quintet there was Sue Palmer, Deejha Marie, Pete Harrison, Sharon Shufet, and Jonny Viau. Sue Palmer was the pianist who has been playing jazz music for decades all over the world with top name composers and arrangers. Deejha Marie was the vocalist for the group, Pete Harrison played the bass, Sharon Shufet played the drums, and Jonny Viau played the tenor sax and baritone sax depending on the song. The ambience of the concert didn’t have that old-school jazz concert feel. It was at a Mexican restaurant on its bar side. The bar had minimal lighting, booths around the stage, confetti looking banners across the ceiling,

Adoff makes music with the words and space in “Street Music” by writing all the descriptive words by separating each letter of the word with spaces and the words that made a sound would be written normally, without spaces in between the letters. For example, at the beginning of the poem, the speaker describes the city and where the noise in this city is coming from. Hence, he separated his words into letters with spaces, an example from is when the speaker states that “T h i s c i t y:/ t h e / a l w a y s / n o i s e / g r i n d i n g” (1-5). Another example of this is “an o r c h e s t r a” (24). On the other hand, words that are used for the actual sounds are written normally in this poem, such as “slamming from bus tires” and “taxi horns”

On March 28th, 2017, I went to Fred Hersch Trio concert with special guest, Anat Cohen. This concert was performed at Schwab auditorium, where I have never been before. All I went to watch the concert was at Eisenhower auditorium. Since it was my first time to Schwab auditorium, I was pretty excited to experience the new atmosphere of the place I have never been to.

It’s amazing to listen to musicians who do not normally play with each other come together and leave the audience in complete awe. That is exactly what happened on the day of Thursday November 26th 2014. The Bill Crothers Varsity Winds comprised of grade eleven and twelve students along with a few, talented grade tens went to listen to the Toronto Symphony Orchestra play. We travelled via a typical yellow school bus that took us to Roy Thomson Hall where we went right to the top level and took our seats. The seating seemed rather helpful because from a distance you could hear every instrument when you focused on it. It was beautiful. The band presented well with their “Penguin” like attire that was kind to the eyes. They appeared very organized,

The Ride is the story of the heinous and gruesome murder of ten year old, Jeffrey Curley, a case that is familiar to many in the Massachusetts area. The book works its way from the grisly crime to the years afterward. It focuses on the family of Jeffrey, heavily weighted on the life of Cambridge Firefighter Bob Curley, Jeffrey’s father.

Within this essay I will demonstrate from The Ride the relationship between reporting and suffering that may have been brought on for the crime victims of this case, the relationship between the victim profiles and the victim family profiles, the role in which the family may have played in the

The spark that ignited the Great Peloponnesian War was a civil war at Epidamnus, between Corcyra and Corinth. The Corcyraeans had a fleet that was second in size to that of Athens, and the Athenians feared that its capture by Corinth would threaten the Athenian Empire. As a result, the Athenians made an alliance with Corcyra that angered the Corinthians. In the summer of 432 B.C.E., the Spartans met to consider their allies grievances. The Spartans were persuaded that the Athenians had an insatiably aggressive power seeking to enslave all Greeks, which resulted in their declaration of war. The Athenians refused to yield to threats or commands, but the Spartans refused to arbitrate and could not reach any settlement with the Athenians.

What does Abraham Lincoln mean to you? The brief story of Abraham Lincoln can be told: he was born February 12, 1809, died April 15,1865, he was a Republican, he had a wife named Mary, and had four children. The brief story is not what should be told though, the full story of Abraham Lincoln should be told. People may associate him with how tall he was or his mark on ending slavery, but there is much more than that. Lincoln's road was a long and hard one, one that should be traveled. President Abraham Lincoln was the 16th President of the United States and one of the greatest the nation has ever known.
