This semester music class has taught me a lot on basic functions of musical sound, elements of music, and what a common beat is. When we first started class we discuss all this information and I received a lot of knowledge from it. For example duple means 2 beats per minute, and triple means 3 beats per minute. Understanding these elements enhances our listening, provides vocabulary for discussion, and increases our capacity to enjoy music. What stood out to me the most in class is how each musician we talked about had a story to tell through their music. For example Woody Guthrie with the song â€Å" This land is our land† was a great protest song. It was written in reaction to the great depression and how people couldn’t find work. This†¦show more content†¦Evelyn made history for every musician with a disability to go out in the world and follow his or her dreams. Evelyn was deaf but she could play better than most musicians that weren’t deaf, she re ally stood out because people were shock of how good she played being deaf. Evelyn’s drive and motivation to do something no matter how much people said she couldn’t do it she did it anyways. Which makes me feel comfortable to do anything I want to do in life. Regardless of how people may look, think, or even judge you. Looking at the video we had to watch outside of class you could tell she just loved what she was doing. If I never knew anything about this lady I couldn’t even guess she was deaf because how good she plays and interacts with her audience. Being in this class has defiantly given me a new perspective on art and music. With me I only listen rap and never was interested in trying other selections of music until this class. Being able to get a better understanding and background information of country, classical music, and rock and roll makes me appreciate the music a lot more. What I have enjoyed more than before is modern jazz. I love the peacefuln ess of the jazz music. It’s a lot more soothing than rap music I must admit. Sometimes I need that music that allows you to escape from all the frustration, anger, and sadness that may have been built up and turn to modern jazz which has been my problem solver.Show MoreRelatedStatement of Purpose23848 Words   |  96 Pages................................................. 36 Ohio Wesleyan University Writing Center  © 2011 IV.
