Singing

My favorite song of the performance was “Clic Clac, Dansez Sabots” because it was really catchy and the harmony was fantastic! Even after the performance, I was singing it by myself. Also, I discovered how beautiful voice is. Without any instrumental accompaniment, they were able to sing a beautiful melody. There were parts I dislike. What I dislike was probably the length of the songs were really short. Some were…

My mother was very talented with instruments and singing, so I followed suit and continued to sing all the way through my childhood. Emersion into music started quite young for me as I sang in preschool, KinderCare, middle school, and in church choir. I also sang in Young Voices of Colorado for three years, and I continue to sing to this day. I was always singing songs, memorizing words to songs that I enjoyed, and reading lyrics online in order to become…

Thank you for your consideration in reference to the above position. I had the privilege of visiting American University last year. My visit was a wonderful experience and I am convinced I could contribute greatly to the education of the musical theatre students. For ten years I have coached musical theatre students in the university environment. My expertise is in vocal training in multiple musical theatre styles, including, legit, pop, jazz, musical theatre traditional and contemporary/pop.…

And he’s pointing out that some hobbies can get you somewhere big in life like singing or dancing. I think he’s an inspiring person for just who he is, for becoming someone with just his voice at the age of 14. I also believe Usher is trying to prove that doing what makes you happy makes you go a long way by just believing, being positive…

Leonard Bernstein was born on August 25th, 1918 in Lawrence, Massachusetts. At age 10 is when he first found himself playing music. His aunt had recently got a divorce, and stored her upright piano in Leonard’s home. Leonard was adamant about learning the instrument, but his father refused him lessons. He decided that he’d save up the money himself. He earned enough and took a few lessons and was a natural at the piano. He met his lifelong coach Helen Coates while in high school. He attended…

Ella Fitzgerald instead of Ethel Merman. I enjoyed the overall classic of the lyrics and see why standards are important for many singers to know and interpret differently. The vocal style of the singer was very different. Ethel’s vocal style of singing is more aggressive and it seemed somewhat rushed but had a whimsical feel. While Ella’s vocal style is more laid back because she takes her time to sing the words of the song and puts soul into it. The form of the song by both singers were pretty…

cigarette and lit another one. I stood there patiently and waited for him to say more, since I had no idea what to say. “Tommy. Might I ask something?” I spoke up. “Mm.” He simply nodded. “I’d like to sing. Only one night a week where there’s singing. Saturday nights, open and easy. Everyone gets to sing their song, just like we did in Galway.” I said, then looked down at my lap. “Harry was too afraid to ask you.” “And you aren’t?” He asked with an amused…

Montserrat Caballe As a legendary Spanish opera singer, Montserrat Caballe is considered one of the greatest opera singers of her generation. In terms of production and performance, she made more than 80 recordings and preformed almost 4,000 performances. Well trained as a young singer in her life, Caballe, certainly, had a special talent, which was sheer powerful voice. Her performance was not restricted in Italian style exemplified by Rossini, Bellini and Donizetti. She went further and…

sinking, sunken, along descents of modality I had not heard before,” and the baritone as “lift[ing] a long black line of comment…murmuring along monotones between major and minor, nor in any determinable key” (27). This method of describing the singing appears to give the…

main character in this song is trying to survive during a nuclear holocaust while accepting that there is nothing they can do as people die. Although I haven 't known a nuclear holocaust; the sensation of sadness I get when I hear the harmonizing singing of the words die and cries I can compare to from past knowledge. People naturally sync with certain expressive phrases or sounds that give us a similar feeling of what humans go through. Imagining myself as these characters who’ve transpired…
