Module 6 Listening Assignment Stax Records After listening to “Knock on Wood” and “I Can’t Turn You Loose”, I would place them under the Stax label. They both have a raw, urgent sound with a pronounced gospel influence in the vocals. The beat is definitely driving in both songs though in “Knock on Wood”, it is much slower. Both songs sound less polished than their Motown counterparts. Stax uses of the horn section more prominently, which is evident in both of these songs compared to the Motown

Twang! Tee-Hee! That’s a pretty good explanation of my time at my concert. The winter of 2014, I went to a Dailey & Vincent Concert. It was a Christmas concert, and it was joyous. Dailey & Vincent are a Christian Bluegrass band that are probably the funniest people in the Bluegrass community. They are hilarious! During the Winter of 2014, the day after we got out of school for Christmas Break, I went to a Concert. First of All, How did I end up coming to a Christmas Bluegrass concert? Well

more emphasis on consonants, especially ones at the beginning of words. On many occasions he encouraged me to have more energy, and to look like I enjoyed singing the song! The song

Serious progression in singing didn't happen overnight, and I soon enlisted in my own choir training boot camp: utilizing every second that I could find to practice, listening to different pitches on my way to school, and asking my peers to correct me when I was out of tune. I cannot remember how many days I got out of bed while the world was still asleep, and started practicing "Oh Wha-T-Beautiful-Day" until my lips dried up. Moreover, the heavy workload from school, and the

On June 25, 2015, I attended one of a series of weekly garden concerts part of the Twilight Garden Concert Series. The performance was held at the Pavilion of the Two Sisters in the Botanical Garden of City Park in New Orleans, Louisiana. The gate opened at five p.m. and ticketholders entered through the main entry and into the indoor facility. The gardens surrounding the building were an elegant addition to set the mood. The atmosphere was pleasantly casual. The attendants of the concert were able

Kadish in 2014. The song is an upbeat song that featured Olivia Mitchell as a soloist. The tempo of the song is allegro; it is a happy tempo even though the lyrics are not. The dynamics of the song is mezzo-forte because it is just sung in a regular singing voice. The song was fun to listen to because it was a song I was familiar with and easy to understand the meaning behind it because the words are in English. The song made me feel happy because of the allegro tempo and it is a fun catchy song. The

Last week on Tuesday, October the 18th, I attended the Eye Worship Deaf Event in Demoss Hall room 1113. I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised with the event and thought it was a wonderful thing. I can definitely see why it is an event that people look forward to all semester long. I was at the event from 7:00pm until around 8:30 pm which is when the event let out. While at the event I sat next to people who are in the same ASL section as myself but I introduced myself to two new people. Their

The Women’s Choir Festival included many different singing groups from Baylor and the community. The women’s choir and Bella Voce each performed two songs. The third part of the concert consisted of 4 soloists singing in opera style. The final performance was a large group of singers from 9 high school and the Baylor Choirs. Everyone got on stage for the final performance and sang 3 songs together. All the songs that were performed varied in qualities. Some had a very fast tempo while others were

it cascades over the verses. I would say that it was flawless singing by Ethel merman. She uses the hard and loud Broadway style for her rendition of “I get a kick out of you” which can be heard as the pronunciation sounds a bit old-fashioned and different from the other rendition by Ella Fitzgerald. The piano is used time to time throughout the song and is finished with the piano as well. She shows great amount of freedom while singing the song. Its sung with uncontrolled vibrato and total emotional
