There is nothing uniform about it. Music is this free concept that can be made any which way. He says, "It does not have to be square or symmetrical or nearly sequential" (Ratliff 208). This means that music can evolve into many things, there are many different ways for music to be created. Varese compared it to crystals growing. Music and crystals grow outward and they are "limitless". ]]> 2017-11-27 04:55:59 UTC https://padlet.com/isabellanieves/4d35wx0qx3kd/wish/210257002 isabellanieves https://padlet.com/isabellanieves/4d35wx0qx3kd/wish/210258003 Ratliff said that one of the things that music can do is have many different sounds "layer up" and come together to make one sound. ]]> 2017-11-27 05:05:07 UTC https://padlet.com/isabellanieves/4d35wx0qx3kd/wish/210258003 isabellanieves https://padlet.com/isabellanieves/4d35wx0qx3kd/wish/210258245 "...it moves in compounding complexity, a strange order of directions, with coordinated brass-section interludes and a couple of bridges..." (Ratliff 210). Throughout the song, instruments keep entering to produce more sound. The individual sections grow and become more dense and complicated. ]]> 2017-11-27 05:07:56 UTC https://padlet.com/isabellanieves/4d35wx0qx3kd/wish/210258245 isabellanieves https://padlet.com/isabellanieves/4d35wx0qx3kd/wish/210258821 When Ratliff mentioned layers, my mind instantly thought of onions. ]]> 2017-11-27 05:14:11 UTC https://padlet.com/isabellanieves/4d35wx0qx3kd/wish/210258821 isabellanieves https://padlet.com/isabellanieves/4d35wx0qx3kd/wish/210259003 Towards the end, all the different characters are their own solos and they later come together to sing the same line right before the song ends. This is a good example of layer and making a song more intricate and complex. ]]> 2017-11-27 05:16:16 UTC https://padlet.com/isabellanieves/4d35wx0qx3kd/wish/210259003 isabellanieves https://padlet.com/isabellanieves/4d35wx0qx3kd/wish/210259281 I agree. I think that when people try to be uniform while creating music, it usually does not go very well. Music is not uniform. It is an art and art is meant to be free and creative. It is meant to be interpreted in a million different ways. There is no set way and there shouldn't be. ]]> 2017-11-27 05:18:55 UTC https://padlet.com/isabellanieves/4d35wx0qx3kd/wish/210259281
