https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm While a fine wine is defined by its age classical music isn't limited by its era instead it is polished and primed as an art to be listened to again and again. en-us 2017-09-18 02:11:01 UTC 2023-04-01 22:38:02 UTC hello@padlet.com veneziaguzman https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188306390 While most believe that defining classical music is as simply just an old piece of music, I can't help but feel as though there is more to the defining something with the prestigious title of being a "Classical Piece" either it be art, music, or film. To me, classical music is defined by its purpose and influences. The Western Canon of Classical Music has been defined and polished to reflect the works of 18th-19th century composers yet more recent pieces have been sited to also fit into this category. Therefore, the presence of influence from Classical Era musicians and composers can also define how well something fits into the classical genre. ]]> 2017-09-18 02:35:13 UTC https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188306390 veneziaguzman https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188306405 2017-09-18 02:35:20 UTC https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188306405 veneziaguzman https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188306570 History has always and will always be written by the winners and only after some time has passed will hidden truths be uncovered. Being interested in the past comes in phases which leaves many pieces uncovered or unappreciated in their time. For a long time the Church did a very good job of keeping the arts and literacy limited to people within their upper levels. For the longest time painters were mostly commissioned by either the Church or Royalty and the same happened with music. ]]> 2017-09-18 02:36:36 UTC https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188306570 veneziaguzman https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188306639 As we talked about this in class, I don't have much to add that hasn't been discussed already. But, I can relate the quote below about female artists in the canon to the whole winners and losers thing. So as you may know, not a lot of churches let women gain leadership roles or directly influence the church which really limited what they could do even w/ connections to the church. Even know we see this rejection of women in leadership roles in other aspects of life from politics to the fine arts. Not because they can't, but because it's hard to break such a long standing mold. ]]> 2017-09-18 02:37:18 UTC https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188306639 veneziaguzman https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188306690 "In the 1970s, feminist art criticism continued this critique of the institutionalized sexism of art history, art museums, and galleries, as well as questioning which genres of art were deemed museum-worthy."]]> 2017-09-18 02:37:45 UTC https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188306690 veneziaguzman https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188306708 "It is remarkably easy to find samples from every continent, and a similar type of musical practice exists in almost every faith community." ]]> 2017-09-18 02:37:58 UTC https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188306708 veneziaguzman https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188308047 As per usual, there was a number of compositions by Beethoven and Mozart along with some pieces by Chopin and Tchaikovsky. I would have been more surprised to see  WILLIAMS, JOHN: Raiders of the Lost Ark – March
Black, Stanley/London Symphony Orchestra, if I hadn't gone to see other videogame symphonies. ]]> 2017-09-18 02:48:38 UTC https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188308047 veneziaguzman https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188308256 My mother and I have been making plans to go see this together since it's near our home or the Wind Symphony's performance on the 28th of this month. It's really nice that UNT students are encouraged to enjoy classical music with student discounts and the occasional free ticket/showing. ]]> 2017-09-18 02:51:10 UTC https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188308256 veneziaguzman https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188308430 I'm really glad this portion was included in our Padlet Exploration #2 since I really need more instrumental music to listen to while working on homework. Unfortunately my ResNet wifi doesn't provide a very stable connection so I had to use my phone instead. That poor thing never gets a break. ]]> 2017-09-18 02:52:17 UTC https://padlet.com/veneziaguzman/8sczw88o5scm/wish/188308430
