MUSC 1010 Introduction to Music
For the Introduction to Music class and for the Semester project, I did a Power-point presentation.
For this project a power-point representation of the Semester paper was due. The requirements were to select a piece of music and write a 5-6 page paper on the piece, with a 2-3 page biography of the composer, a1-2 page history of the piece of music, and a 1-2 page listening guide for the selected work. While researching this piece, Cello Concerto in E Minor (Moderato) composed by Edward Elgar, I was surprised to find that it had a historical root with World War 1. It was quite enjoyable learning about the parts of the music, what instruments were used for the composition and of course the effect World War 1 had on the inspiration of the piece.
