My story with music

When I was younger when I went to elementary school here in Fortuna my class altogether went to a program it was the music class. It was 4^th grade the music program was part of class and an assignment.  In order to pass the class we had to practice and play the piano and the recorder every night at least once. When we played the piano we learned basic keys and my teacher taught us some songs but what we learned more was how to play the recorder. We had to learn about 8 songs and we would get belts at the end showing everybody that we passed the song and to make our recorder more colorful. The colors were white, orange, purple, green, red, yellow, blue and black. Playing the recorder took us about half of the year but it was a fun year because once we would learn the song then we would go up on stage and do a concert and for me that was really special because I had learned something new and because I was showing everyone there how good I was. We all had a lot of many opportunities in school and one of the best ones was learning how to play instruments and being able to take the music class.

The book edited by Simon Broughton, Mark Ellingham, and Richard Trillo was published on November 1999. The book is about music from Europe and explains where music comes from and how it was inspiring for everyone there it gives a list of places where music was popular and where music originally came from. “The whole world is a narrow bridge and the most important thing is not to be afraid “said Rabbi Nahman from the eighteen century. The book gives positive feedback and gives a list of many artists and what kind of music they sing. I think the book is a helpful way to learn where music really comes from and how all around the world people listen to the same types of songs just that it’s a new generation.

Our topic is on how music inspires each one of us.  I chose to do mine on music because we want to show people that music is a way to relax some people let out their emotions with music. There are many kinds of music and here is a short list Latin music, Hip hop, Asian hop, and Opera, Reggae, and Dance music. Many people don’t know that each song has its meaning some songs try to send people a message or there are expressing what they feel in the song, like if they are in love, if they are sad, if they are angry or if they are having problems in their own lives. Many people don’t know what music is really about they don’t know how to appreciate because they listen to a song and say that’s its garbage because it has a bad beat or is a bad singer but they don’t know what the artists had to go through to be able to sing songs to people. That’s why I want to show people what music is really about and what I want to achieve is that people should try to understand different types of music and explore their music.
