In the process of choosing a piece to perform one should ask them how, why, and when it was written.

BRAGER A dissertation submitted to the School of Graduate Studies Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Women’s & Gender Studies Written under the direction of Judith Gerson And approved by New Brunswick, New Jersey MAY, 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Bodies of Evidence: The Image, the Flesh, and the Modern Crisis of the Human By JENNA R. BRAGER Dissertation Director: Judith Gerson Bodies of Evidence is a study of the transnational optics of anti-blackness across German and U.S. settler colonial projects, with a particular attention to the afterlives of visual discourses in present-day politics and memory. This dissertation analyzes case studies from the U.S., Germany, and German South West Africa, what is present-day Namibia, to track the trace of settler colonial and racial ideologies across seemingly discrete and ruptural violences. Rather than continue to treat these histories and archives as distinct or hierarchical instances of violence, I argue for the importance of interpreting them as part of a broader, uninterrupted narrative. Bodies of Evidence adopts a transnational scope that places settler colonial violence—including the Herero and Nama genocide in German South West Africa—alongside European genocide, framing these events as part of the same ideological and scopic regime. My interdisciplinary analysis builds upon critical race theory, critical visual studies, postcolonial and Black feminist scholarship, museum studies, biological anthropology, among other interdisciplinary and theoretical threads.

  • A Guide to Band Instruments Picking the Right Instrument for Your Student Is a Big Decision
    A Guide to Band Instruments Picking the right instrument for your student is a big decision. Use the descriptions below in If you’ve never played an instrument before, you should choosing your top 3 instrument choices! ​ pick an instrument from this side Flute:​ One of the highest sounding instruments in the band. Very small, and can often fit into a student’s backpack! Despite its size, the flute takes as much air to play as the tuba. Clarinet:​ Sometimes called the violin of the band. Also very easy to carry! Clarinet players need to be aware that they will need to purchase a supply of reeds. We can never have too many clarinets in the band! Clarinetists can easily switch to saxophone and bass clarinet once they have played clarinet for a year. Alto Saxophone:​ a higher sounding instrument in the band. They play some melody and some harmony in the band. Alto sax cases are about the size of a trumpet case. Please remember all saxes will need to buy a supply of reeds. Trumpet:​ The highest sounding brass instrument. The sound is made by the students buzzing their lips in the mouthpiece. Trumpet players can switch to the French Horn later on in band. Trombone:​ a low brass instrument and easily carried home for practice! It might be the coolest instrument in the band, being the only one that changes notes using a slide! Students begin by learning bells and music reading Percussion:​ ​ ​, and later learn snare drum, bass drum, timpani, cymbals, and many other percussion instruments.

  • Choosing the Best Band Instrument for You FLUTE
    Choosing the Best Band Instrument for You There are may factors to consider in choosing an appropriate instrument to play in the Elementary Band Program. The following information is designed as a guide to help your child make a smarter choice. Each section below explains the different instruments in the band program. Both the positive aspects of each instrument, and those aspects that might make the instrument more of a challenge for your child are presented. In the end, your child should choose the instrument that sound best pleases them. Students are more likely to practice if they enjoy the sound of the instrument they choose. FLUTE Physical Consideration: The flute requires all 10 fingers to work independently, while being held off to the side. It can be difficult to make a sound at first. It takes some coordination and lots of practice. Students must use lots of air to make a sound, and therefore it may not be appropriate for students with asthma or upper respiratory difficulties. Students often experience difficulties in the when first learning to play the flute until they become accustomed to using enough air support. Sound Quality: The flute is a woodwind instrument. It has a soft, delicate sound. It plays the highest notes in the band and often plays the melody. At first, it may sound “airy” until the student learns to control their lips. Other Considerations: The flute is the smallest band instrument which makes it easy to carry. The case does not have room for the lesson book, so students must have a separate bag for that.

  • The Brass Family 1 Table of Contents
    THE CLEVELAND ORCHESTRA WHAT IS AN ORCHESTRA? Student Learning Lab for The Brass Family 1 Table of Contents PART 1: Let’s Meet the Brass Family ................................. 3 PART 2: Let’s Listen to Sonata for Horn, Trumpet and Trombone ......................................................... 6 PART 3: Music Learning Lab ................................................ 9 2 PART 1: Let’s Meet the Brass Family An orchestra consists of musicians organized by instrument “family” groups. The four instrument families are: strings, woodwinds, brass and percussion. Today we are going to explore the brass family! Brass instruments have been around since ancient times. Horns have been pictured on the walls of primitive dwellings and Egyptian tombs, and described on crumbling scrolls and clay tablets. They have been made of bone, cane, an animal’s horn, and metal. Brass instruments have played important roles throughout history from communicating messages over long distances, to announcing the arrival of dignitaries and royalty, to war, hunting, and celebrations. The members of the brass family – from highest to lowest in the pitches that they are able to produce – are: Trumpet French Horn Trombone Tuba 3 How brass instruments work Brass instruments have a metal mouthpiece. A player puts her lips together and buzzes air through them into the metal mouthpiece. This starts the air vibrating through the hollow metal tube, which comes out of the “bell” at the far end of the tubing. The more metal tubing there is and the larger the bell, the lower the sound - just like in the other instrument families in which the larger instruments produce the lowest sounds! Have you ever tried buzzing your lips? Close your mouth with your lips loosely touching.
