Listening Journal

Bach: This sounds like World music. This also shares a modern classical guitar sound but a hispanic or latin american tone. There's a since of love with the fingers hitting the strings. Guitar played like this is when the instrument is at its finest. Bourree is a beautiful piece, I believe this could have been from the romantic period. I always get the feeling of a solo act serenading while playing a guitar. The rhythm is up beat, the musical texture is monophony. You can hear him finger picking and incorporating scales.

Nezasa: This is also in the World music category. The tempo is slow, with lots of pauses, breaks, and rests in between the notes. It has a small ranging melody stays in similar tones and a similar range between them. The mood is peaceful. It has a calming effect bringing tranquility. I picture being in a forest barefoot in a prehistoric setting.

Somewhere over the Rainbow: You can tell this is an oldie. Songs from this time seem to have been stamped with something that always gives it a good feeling. This would be popular music category. This is one i can almost remember my grandmother signing while on the front porch, life was easier back then, or so it seemed. The tempo is soft flowing. With different vocal pitches on drawn out notes like most music from this time.

Art Tatum: This was very interesting Art can definitely play the piano, almost soloing it like a guitar. It had two different melodies and vibes to me. One is almost sporadic with lots of scales and sharp notes. The other is very flowy and peaceful. I have actually never heard a piano solo of this song and it was really expressive and enjoyable to listen to. Very fast tempo. This would be in the popular music category and sounds like jazz or soul music as the style.
