Music

Toccata and Fugue in D Minor.

I’ve heard this piece before in the old movie “Dracula” and also in “Phantom of the Opera”. The mood this piece creates is frightening and eerie. Listening to it gives me chills and sets a very mysterious mood. This music sounds like if it came out of a horror film. The beginning of the piece seems very difficult to perform but is nicely executed by the musician.

Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring.

I’m pretty familiar with this piece. I’ve heard this piece at church after mass. I also remember this piece from watching movies with church scenes in them. The instruments involved in the melody are an organ and a trumpet. The mood this piece creates is happy, gentle and in some ways calming to the soul.

Brandenburg Concert No.2.

The instruments involved in playing the individual melodies are flute, violin, harpsichord recorder, cello, base, trumpet, and an oboe. Counterpoint plays an important role in the development of this piece because the relationships between two or more rhythms are harmonically independent.

I Love Lucy-Latin Playerz

The instruments being played in this piece are tenor sax, trumpet, drum set, congas drums, bass guitar, piano, and a trombone. This performance is constructed by The Jazz Cycle. This is when all the musicians being on the same page at the start of the piece. Then the sax starts to improvise and it harmonically blends. Then the trumpet begins to improvise, after everyone improvises, they start the melody over again.
