Assignment 9

I chose chapter 65 Austin Wintory, Nascence from Journey. I did listen to this piece of music about four times to make sure all the sounds I was hearing. The first listening i thought oh this is nice but didn’t pick out exactly what instruments i was hearing. The second listening I could certainly hear a violin playing. I could also hear a cello playing in some parts of the piece. The third time i listened to it, I could also hear a didgerido playing as well. The elements of timbre and dynamics were played very well during this piece. You could tell when the dramatics were about to start or when the tone went down into a softer place. You could hear the violin go high and low and hearing the didgerido softly playing in the background. I really did enjoy the Nascence. I’m glad i picked this option as my piece to listen to. I have also listen to some more pieces from him and enjoyed them as well.
