Day 6

Late, sorry :/
I promise it's a good reason!

DAY 6- Something you love

MUSIC. :)



Now, when I say music I don't mean the crap everyone THINKS is music. Don't get me wrong- my ipod is full of the latest pop music. I love to jam to it! But when I say I love music I mean straight up instrumental music. The stuff that isn't all electronically produced. It shows signs of talent and great technique. Some of my favorite composers are: Joseph Haydn, Frank Ticheli, Percy A. Granger, Bach, Gustav Holst, Tchaikovsky, Alfred Reed, Leroy Anderson,  Beethoven, John Williams (to name a few). People who have spent years studying theory and composing music that just makes my heart rejoice! As much as I love to complain about my Music 1010 class, I absolutely adore it. I've really learned to appreciate music even MORE than I ever have before! I've learned so much about these composers and why they do the things they do. I've learned about the time periods they lived in and the social impact their music had.

My favorite thing in the world is going to wind ensemble concerts. I just love hearing this beautiful stuff! I love even more to play it myself! There is nothing better than sitting down with my clarinet and my symphonic band and to just play this music. I'm very thankful for music in my life. It has such an emotional impact on me. So this is what I love :)
