Analyzing Nicholas Mochocki's Sleepy Hollow

It comprises recurring pulses and accents that create identifiable patterns. Also, without rhythm there is only the rise and falling of tones (119). The song is the same measure repeated over and over in slightly different ways. There are two characteristics that tend to change throughout this song, tempo and the dynamics. Tempo is the rate of speed of the composition (120). The song begins in the tempo Lento, slow, and begins picking up speed and rising to andante, moderate, tempo. Dynamics is the degrees of loudness and softness in the music (177). In this particular song the tempo and dynamics build off each other. When one changes the other changes with it, creating layers to the sound you hear and making each note pleasing to the

A. In William Tell Overture Part 2, Gioachino Rossini uses a wide range of dynamics in this song with going from a slow softer tone then immediately goes into a loud fast paced song.

Have you ever heard your parents talking about something and you just agree with their opinion on the topic or you just didn’t quite understand? Well in To Kill A Mockingbird, by Harper Lee, and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, by Mark Twain, the narration is done through a child’s perspective. The children in both books describe the events of racism, discrimination, and social class disorder, through their own eyes. They often don’t understand what is happening and are confused in the situations. Huck Finn, narrates, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, while Scout Finch narrates To Kill A Mockingbird.

It is opened by a sustained major seventh chord on the tonic (C major) to establish a misty morning scene. The oboe continues to introduce a bird-like pattern followed by a triple meter slow string melody with drones richly harmonising in the cellos and basses. This rhythm; crotchet, minim, crotchet minim, is widely used in Delius’s works. There are passing tones which creates discordance at times when played against the harmonic roots. The strings flutter on the final held note and then the clarinet plays the traditional cuckoo call. Throughout the middle section which is based around the Norwegian folk song, “In Ola Valley” this cuckoo call is reintroduced several times. The strings play a small looping pattern before the end of the managing to create simple yet rich new harmonies. A major chord dies away to silence. This ending is also similar to Lark Ascending as both pieces fade away into

Boschnak’s “Expositions” tears into a puissant rhythm and groove after an intriguing intro featuring the deep tones of the bass clarinet, which, together with bowed bass reinforces the foundation’s density with swaggering stance. Rather intelligible than sprinting, the trumpet solo that follows, momentarily complemented with clarinet punctuations, disembogues in a bridge that leads to a vocalized ostinato interlude, obsessively iterate by the guest

“Songlines” follows, and we hear the deeper tones of Pykes voice in this gentle piece. Building towards the chorus, it becomes a sunshine filled, love song that uses electro sounds, a killer brass section and xylophone to communicate the devotion for the

Tales of the Grim Sleeper is a documentary about the elusive serial killer Lonnie Franklin, filmed by Nick Broomfield. This film shows the viewer first hand accounts from neighbors and friends of Franklin telling their stories of things they saw and the Lonnie they knew. In this film you are also shown these perspective of the mothers of the victims, organizations who want justice for the victims of Lonnie Franklin.

After this continued for a little while, a sort of twirling sound began to arise and then fall back into the same melody that was at the beginning of the movement but this time it had sounds almost like footsteps along with the beat. Again, something evil seems to arise and has a dark feeling to it and then it slowly fades out, almost like it’s waiting for something to happen. Then you begin to hear a soft tip toeing for a little while as it becomes louder and louder and everyone in the orchestra starts to play in a monophony, which is the same notes at the same time. Then the chasing sounds begin along with the same melody that was at the beginning of the movement. It starts to get faster and faster and you begin to hear horns as the composition

Three phrases of the tune which was given to clarinets and bassoons, has its cadence echoed by low strings. Passages developed from the first theme then led gradually to its return in its original calm mood after a brief climax. A brief coda was made by a new and happy melody referring to the main theme.

This form of contrast illustrates that, with all of the conflict going on, there is still beauty and peace in the world. After the light break, the male choir opens back up into the original rhythm and chorus again, bringing the player back into the glorious feeling of saving the world's beauty from destruction and chaos. The structure of the choir is held in emotion by the chord

Despite the different mood between the melody and harmony, the sound is still relative to each other. Measure one through eight plays three different times during the song. Measures one through eight are first played as the beginning of the song, then just after that play it immediately repeats. The third and final time these measures are played are after measure eighteen. Before the vocal entrance strings seem to start the song off.

ACT II starts off with a basso continuo playing in the background. The main voice then comes in and sings slowly and with much passion. This piece is more gloomy because of the words the singer sings. He describes him saying goodbye to the sky and sun. The melody is also sinking down when the singer mentions the word “morte”. When the singer mentions flying and height the song gains rhythms very quickly to imitate motion going up. ACT III starts off slow and descending. Then, a soft high pitched voice comes in singing slowly. Later in the song the voice rises into a higher range that creates emphasis on the words especially when the words exclaim. The words get higher and more intense as the song continues. The pieces are very similar in some

14 The element of rhythmic complexity is essentially absent, for there is only one melodic theme throughout the movement. The melody of this movement is based on the Phrygian Mode (E mode). The soft dynamics in combination with the extreme range of this movement make this a very challenging section of the piece. In the middle section of the Pavane the trumpet is muted, providing a counter melody while the piano has the main theme. 15 The last section displays a return

Bastian Balthazar Bux, a 12 year old schoolboy, had escaped the bullies pursuing him by dashing into a shop owned by a gruff, old, and red faced man called Carl Conrad Coreander. While Mr. Coreander was preoccupied with a phone call, Bastian noticed an odd book and was seized with an irresistible desire to obtain it. He ended up stealing the book and hiding in his school’s attic to avoid being caught. The book’s title was The Neverending
