Photo by Hiroyuki Ito/Getty Images By Aaron Green Updated March 17, 2017 Although any combination of four stringed instruments can be called a string quartet, the term usually denotes a musical ensemble that consists of two violins, one viola, and one cello.

Before him, string quartets were little more than coincidence; because the genre didn’t really exist, music wasn’t written for it. Haydn began composing for string quartets largely because of the circumstances he encountered when he was invited to Baron Carl von Joseph Edler von Fürnberg’s castle. When asked to perform chamber music, the only people he could gather to perform were two violins, a viola, and a cello. From Haydn’s first quartet to his last, a glorious progression of the composer’s development of the form is remarkably apparent. The model of composition of his Opus 9 quartets became the standard string quartet form. Listen to Hadyn’s String Quartet in C Major, Op. 9, No. 1 on YouTube. Generally, the music composed for a string quartet reflects the four movement form of an orchestra: a fast first movement followed by a slow second movement, a dance-like third movement, and a fast forth movement. Due to extreme limitation to only four instrumental parts, the musical form flourished in the classical period - a time where musical conservatism and the perfection of form abounded. It’s said that a composer’s true musical ability can be judged by how well he or she can write music for a string quartet. After Haydn, there were a handful of classical and romantic period composers that excelled in writing string quartet music. Notable String Quartet Composers Though there are many notable string quartet composers, the composers listed below are considered by most musicologists to be the most influential. 1. Felix Mendelssohn Listen to Mendelssohn’s String Quartet in A minor, Op. 13, No. 2 on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oncGEuT3zNo 2. Franz Joseph Haydn Listen to Haydn’s String Quartet, Op. 76, No. 3 “Emperor” on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHJolteDIzc 3. Franz Schubert Listen to Schubert’s String Quartet in D Minor, No. 14 “Death and the Maiden” on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otdayisyIiM Information was found on this website: https://www.liveabout.com/string-quartet-101-723913 4. Ludwig van Beethoven Listen to Beethoven’s String Quartet in E Flat Major, Op. 127, No. 12 on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVVdMzv02s8 5. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Listen to Mozart’s String Quartet in D minor, No. 15, K. 421 on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydlRd_nzX5Y Modern String Quartet Music Today, string quartet music isn’t limited to the pages of Haydn’s great works. Many performers and ensembles are finding ways to attract audiences by covering songs by popular artists. As much as I love a Haydn quartet, to someone with an untrained ear, a cover of Taylor Swift's “Love Story” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmB6cC6uWBU) is more likely going to capture their attention and spark their interest. I know it’s not a string quartet, but look how much fun these young musicians in the Berklee Pop String Ensemble are having performing Pharrell Williams hit song “Happy” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmPVOFWMFNc). If any of these covers attracts a student to learn and develop a talent for performing on a stringed instrument, that student may well become the next great composer to write for and revolutionize the string quartet. Adam Neiman, a pianist and composer I recently discovered, wrote his first string quartet in 2011, and premiered it on July 16, 2012, at the Seattle Chamber Music Festival. With five movements, it’s quite different than the classical period quartets. I find it to be an exciting piece of music and I hope it’s the first of many string quartets. Listen to a performance of Neiman’s String Quartet on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oySN7B2OdOk Popular Uses of the String Quartet Apart from concert halls and small theaters, string quartets are extremely popular at weddings (view my recommended classical music wedding albums) and other special events. Why? Their small instrumentation is quiet enough for conversation, they are able to play indoors and outdoors, and their music is sophisticated and elegant enough for any formal event. String quartets for hire can easily be found by searching the yellow pages, Internet, or bulletin boards at music stores, churches, and public/private event halls.

There is more poetry in pop music than many people expect. Photo by: Jørund F. Pedersen/Wikimedia. A metaphor is a figure of speech. It makes a comparison between two things that seem unrelated at first. For example, you might hear the metaphor "he is such a pig." This is often used to talk about someone who eats too much. A similar figure of speech is a simile. However, similes use words such as "like" and "as." For example, the phrase "she eats like a bird" is a simile. Take a look at the lyrics from Michael Jackson's song "Human Nature," which includes the following line: If this town is just an apple Then let me take a bite In these lyrics, Jackson refers to New York City as an apple he can eat. This is because another name for New York is the Big Apple. In fact, the term "Big Apple" had other meanings throughout history. In the 1800s, the term "big apple" meant that something was seen as very desirable and important. This article is available at 5 reading levels at https://newsela.com. Sometimes metaphors can be in a song's title, like in the case of "Your Love is a Song" by Switchfoot. The metaphor of love as music also shows up in the lyrics: Ooh, your love is a symphony All around me, running through me Ooh, your love is a melody Underneath me, running to me Writers throughout history have compared love to music or other beautiful objects. For example, in the 1700s, Scottish poet Robert Burns compared his love to both a rose and a song: O my Luve's like a red, red rose, That's newly sprung in June: O my Luve's like the melodie, That's sweetly play'd in tune. Metaphors and similes are very common in everyday speech, writing and music. Songs are a great way to learn about these figures of speech. Pop music is filled with metaphors, as you can see in the following list. "Can't Stop The Feeling" - Justin Timberlake The song "Can't Stop the Feeling" by Justin Timberlake recently topped the music charts.

  • The AGA Song Book up to Date
    3rd Edition Songs, Poems, Stories and More! Edited by Bob Felice Published by The American Go Association P.O. Box 397, Old Chelsea Station New York, N.Y., 10113-0397 Copyright 1998, 2002, 2006 in the U.S.A. by the American Go Association, except where noted. Cover illustration by Jim Rodgers. No part of this book may be used or reproduced in any form or by any means, or stored in a database or retrieval system, without prior written permission of the copyright holder, except for brief quotations used as part of a critical review. Introductions Introduction to the 1st Edition When I attended my first Go Congress three years ago I was astounded by the sheer number of silly Go songs everyone knew. At the next Congress, I wondered if all these musical treasures had ever been printed. Some research revealed that the late Bob High had put together three collections of Go songs, but the last of these appeared in 1990. Very few people had these song books, and some, like me, weren’t even aware that they existed. While new songs had been printed in the American Go Journal, there was clearly a need for a new collection of Go songs. Last year I decided to do whatever I could to bring the AGA Song Book up to date. I wanted to collect as many of the old songs as I could find, as well as the new songs that had been written since Bob High’s last song book. You are holding in your hands the book I was looking for two years ago.

  • ENDER's GAME by Orson Scott Card Chapter 1 -- Third
    ENDER'S GAME by Orson Scott Card Chapter 1 -- Third "I've watched through his eyes, I've listened through his ears, and tell you he's the one. Or at least as close as we're going to get." "That's what you said about the brother." "The brother tested out impossible. For other reasons. Nothing to do with his ability." "Same with the sister. And there are doubts about him. He's too malleable. Too willing to submerge himself in someone else's will." "Not if the other person is his enemy." "So what do we do? Surround him with enemies all the time?" "If we have to." "I thought you said you liked this kid." "If the buggers get him, they'll make me look like his favorite uncle." "All right. We're saving the world, after all. Take him." *** The monitor lady smiled very nicely and tousled his hair and said, "Andrew, I suppose by now you're just absolutely sick of having that horrid monitor. Well, I have good news for you. That monitor is going to come out today. We're going to just take it right out, and it won't hurt a bit." Ender nodded. It was a lie, of course, that it wouldn't hurt a bit. But since adults always said it when it was going to hurt, he could count on that statement as an accurate prediction of the future. Sometimes lies were more dependable than the truth. "So if you'll just come over here, Andrew, just sit right up here on the examining table.

  • Mental Education Program Toward Success
    Indian Journal of Fundamental and Applied Life Sciences ISSN: 2231– 6345 (Online) An Open Access, Online International Journal Available at www.cibtech.org/sp.ed/jls/2015/01/jls.htm 2015 Vol.5 (S1), pp. 4240-4246/Rasti et al. Research Article MENTAL EDUCATION PROGRAM TOWARD SUCCESS: THE CASE FOR STUDENT ATHLETES AND OTHER ADOLESCENTS Mohammad Ali Rasti1, *Zainudin Bin Abu Bakar2 and Zainal Abidin2 1University Technology, Malaysia 2Department of Psychology Education, University Technology, Malaysia *Author for Correspondence ABSTRACT This study aimed at depicting the important picture of mental education among student athletes in their physical education courses in schools. Moreover, we proposed a mental education program for student athletes and other adolescents in order to enhance their psychological and educational skills. This program, based on the author's experiences in Iran as to a mental education program, should have these features. In fact, this program is extensible to other context such as Malaysia, one in which this study conducted. Keywords: Mental Education, Student Athlete, Adolescent INTRODUCTION Adolescence is an important stage in any individual's life. It is described as the period in which several coping skills and capabilities are acquired (Jones and Lavallee, 2009). Sports boost the life skills of adolescences and reduce fear of failure in young athletes. It can also facilitate positive growth in adolescents (Dowrkin and Larson, 2003). Additionally, due to the structured nature of sports, which require voluntary effort and interpersonal relationships with adults and peers, it provides them with performance and social development (Saferstein, 2006; Gould and Carson, 2008). In sports, adolescents are equipped with opportunities to develop essential behavioral and mental skills such as the ability to tolerate failure, stress management, risk taking, and perseverance (Holt et al., 2012).
