Bad New Jazz Vs Space Train
A good electric guitar player is part of the group as well. They also at one point had a woman with a nice singing voice perform with them. She sing several songs with them. Next, I found out why they had the Bad New Jazz & Blues Orchestra again at the festival. In the band, one member acted as their conductor. Several individuals play saxophone. A couple of individuals plays horns. Three trumbones are involve, a woman sings well in the band and unlike Space Train had key board player in it. The trumpet players were good and I am not what you call a fan of them. In fact, I like the singing of this woman better than the singer in Space Train. It was very well organized orchestra. People in the audience must have agree because a couple

    “They were an up-and-coming group and really should have gone somewhere. I think bad management held them back, but it was great. We toured all over the country. From there I worked with some of the biggest names out of Austin – Alejandro Escovedo, Bob Schneider, and Joe Ely’s band The Flantlanders,” said…

    The concert that I chose to attend was the Gramophone award winners, Pavel Haas Quartet. Veronika Jaruskova, Marek Zxiebel, Pavel Nikl, and Peter Jarusek were the musicians. They were all very talented. Their movements were amazing and no matter the difficulty, they stayed in time with one another. The songs they chose to perform were Quartet No. 1 in B minor, Op. 50 by the composer Prokofiev, Quartet No. 11 in F minor, Op. 95 “Serioso” by Beethoven, and Quartet No. 5, Sz. 102 by Bartok. All these pieces were amazing both in difficulty and sound.…

    The quintet consisted of Adam Heller, Kendall Fowler, Chandler Boyd, Dan Sitler, and Tim Henderson. They started off with Blue Train by the great John Coltrane. It had a steady tempo and a smooth sound. The trumpet played by Adam Heller stood out during this tune. It was a great piece that the audience enjoyed thoroughly. The next tune played by this quintet is So Dance Samba by A. C. Jobim. The piano played by Chandler Boyd starts the tune out beautifully. The drums played by Tim Henderson keep the fast beat and tempo. The sax played by Kendell Fowler played wonderfully along with the trumpet played by Adam Heller. Both of these talented musicians stood out. The trumpet took the lead for most of this piece, but the bass played by Dan Sitler and the piano still stood out at portions. This piece ended on a loud note. Their next tune is Grass Fed that was impressively created by their director Scott Routenberg in one day. This tune had a fast tempo and a happy feel. The trumpet played by Adam Heller and the sax played by Kendell Fowler stood out during most of this piece. It was a very impressive and appealing piece. I enjoyed each piece of this quintet’s…

    Reading through Dennis Johnson’s Train Dreams, it quickly becomes evident that this book isn’t just a novella on the life of a man who loses his wife and daughter to a forest fire, but instead something much greater. Throughout the novel and even on its cover art, Train Dreams hints at how “…the cataclysmic changes wrought by twentieth century” led to “…the disappearance of a certain kind of American life”. In this novella, Robert Grainer is a man whose life is caught up in the middle of America’s modernization; more importantly than watching wooden bridges turn into iron bridges, Robert is able to witness the “death” of the old American West culture.…

    They never were appreciated, and they grew into a terrorist organization. Do not let that happen to the members of the band. We are not announced enough. We are barely even recognized as a sport. What is a sport anyway? Football is a sport. What about band? The definition of a sport is “An activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment.” What part does band not fulfill? Do we not do physical work? Do we not have skill to play instruments during that? Do we not compete with others? Is our very purpose not to entertain? Are we not a team? Are we not a sport?…

    My only complaint was that it took a while to fully appreciate the traditional Orchestra. To fully recreate the Led Zeppelin sound, a traditional rock band set up was arranged in the middle of the stage. The electric instruments and drum kit were enough to drown out the other instruments during most of the performance. It was only during certain part of songs, such as “Kashmir”, that it became easier to appreciate other instruments.…

    Although I am beginning to appreciate classical music more, I personally enjoy music with words more than music without words. When songs have words I pay more attention trying to figure what the storyline is behind the song. I am very into music all genres such as, pop, country, rock, reggae, and so on. I am open to listening to anything new, which is why I enjoy going to different music events such as this block party. Overall, I enjoyed this performance very much and I am glad I got to see such a great band perform for free, thanks to Utica College. I wish I could have listened to more but I am glad I got to hear a few musical selections before the event was…

    On Friday, December 6th, I attended the Sac State Vocal Jazz Ensembles. The show began with special guests Christian Brothers Vocal Jazz. This young group of singers were extremely talented for their age. They held their harmonies and expressed their talents in each piece they performed. It was quite impressive and heartwarming because these students looked so into the music that it showed the passion they have for singing and vocal jazz. Following these talented young students, the Sac State Jazz Singers came on stage and did an excellent job at their pieces as well. I appreciated the song choices and arrangements for each piece. They definitely showed the hard work and practice they put into each piece and I overly enjoyed the show they put on. With all of the songs from both groups, dynamics, harmonies, unison, scatting, and different rhythms, especially in 4/4 time signature, were portrayed throughout.…

    In addition, the festival pertained of people bringing in their classic cars to see which car was the best. What shocked me was that men worked months in order to prepare their cars for this festival. They had trophies for the best classic car contest up to 20th place so one can just imagine how many cars surrounded the festival. Also I had the opportunity to listen to live rock n roll music all day. There were different rock n roll bands alternating all day to get to hear a variety of rock n roll music. What I enjoyed most about the music was the fact that some members of the bands were playing unknown instruments to me that introduced me to new sounds and melodies. The bands were even selling their albums to the crowd in order to fundraise for the scholarship.…

    They all worked very well together you could see the relationships they had built when they played together. Their music was elegant and smooth, their tones and notes were all within the same range. There were a few mistakes the band members made that I could tell. They were able to keep going strong and not let the mistake slow them down though. Everyone in the band had solos to be able to show off their individual talent, although most of the solos were by the saxophones and the trumpets. The second song with vocals had two men and one girl. The men did very well and had ranges of notes that were very low, while the girl only sang when there were high notes that needed to be reached. In the last song there was the most solos, nine in total. This was my favorite song to watch the band perform while some of the others were my favorite to listen too. In the last song the band let loose and I could tell they were having fun. They were all moving around while playing their instruments. They really embellished their solos and they all looked happy while…
