...Professor Schmidt 3/20/2016 Phil 195 Philosophy and Music Exam answer the following short answer questions: 1. How did the views of music change from the Middle Ages through the Renaissance/ Enlightenment? Music in the Middle ages continued on the idea from agent Greeks that there were two separate ideas or views of music, First type of music was the music seen as proper, the proper music was seen almost as a branch of knowledge, including the math and ratio behind a musical number, in this instance music was considered as an aid to spiritual experiences and was seen as a holy endeavor on its own. The second type of Music was the improper form of music, which is used as temptation, which seemed to coerce the body to move rather than exercising and expanding one’s mind. This kind of music almost had a demonic takeover kind of characteristic to it, this music takes one’s mind away from reason and toward instinctual behaviors. During the renaissance arguments would be made for both of these views of music, one can see how arguments can be made for which form of music is more natural. The mathematical relationship intertwined in a piece of shows how music in this form is almost connected to some kind of universal truth.

...Renaissance Time Capsule Rodney A. Mathis HUM/102 June 2, 2014 Dr. Julie Kares Renaissance Time Capsule As part of my introduction to humanities class, I was required to probe for a concealed time capsule from both the Renaissance and the Baroque ages. Thereafter, I was required to identify at least two examples of art, music, architecture, philosophy, and literature depicted during the periods. By doing so, I expected to identify how these examples reflected world events and cultural blueprints of their periods. The Renaissance refers to the cultural transformations witnessed in Europe between the fourteen-century and the sixteen-century (Cheremeteff, 2000). The transformations originated in Italy before spreading to the other parts of Europe. Owing to the transformations, Europe came out of the economic crisis experienced during the middle ages. As such, the period was marked by robust financial growth. Similarly, the period saw changes in art, music, architecture, philosophy, and literature. On the other hand, the Baroque refers to the cultural style witnessed in Europe between the 17th century and the mid 18th century (Cheremeteff, 2000). The style was depicted by the use of overstated motion and interpreted features to create stage shows, tension, enthusiasm, and sumptuousness from monuments, work of arts, literature, and songs. Detailed below is what I expect to unravel from the two time capsules. Art From the Renaissance period, I expect to find the Last supper...

...Time Capsule Assignment As part of my very first humanities class, I was asked to dig up a time capsule that had been buried with items from the Renaissance and the Baroque periods of time. I did indeed find this time capsule, but there were way too many things in there to tell you about it all. With that being said, I will pick two from a few different categories and discuss those. This means I will be writing on two pieces art, music, architecture, philosophy, and literature. After telling you all about these findings, I am required to tell you how these items reflect world events and cultural patterns of time. The Renaissance refers to the cultural transformations witnessed in Europe between the fourteen-century and the sixteen-century (Cheremeteff, 2000).

...What do Ethnomusicologist mean when they say, "Music is universal, but it is not a universal language”? ~ Ethnomusicologist mean that music is found and made all over the world, but everyone doesn’t interpret music the same way. Chapter 1, page 4 states, “Each individual listener's interpretation is entirely the result of cultural conditioning and life experience." Meaning, depending on your cultural upbringing and your experiences in life, you will process and analyze music differently. We can all listen to the same exact song and all feel that it has a different meaning. Something can be music to one person and noise to another. What are the potential problems in classifying music as "classical," "folk," or "popular”? ~ Labeling music can often mislead people. Due to different cultural backgrounds it can confuse people. According to the textbook, in shorter words, "it is often tempting to use labels as shorthand. Unfortunately, not everyone understands their meanings and limitations. All three terms came from different cultures. Folk came from the Germans with the meaning coming from the Romantic Movement in the 18th-19th century, Classical came from the French and Italian culture. The textbooks states that the terms, "suggest a hierarchical value system in which classical is typically considered highest, folk of the much lower value, and popular at the lowest level." So by categorizing music you’re also categorizing it with a certain type of people. How might an ethnomusicologist...

..."The community of The Giver had achieved at such a great price. A community without danger or pain. But also a community without music, color or art. And books." Lois Lowry once said this. She is saying how the community of “"The Giver"” can be reached but everyone would have to give up books, art, music, and color. Music and color played a big role in both "The Giver" movie and novel. These elements in the movie and book are different and they have an impact on the story of "The Giver" in both the film and novel. "The Giver" book and movie are different because the music in the movie add more of a connection with the story and finding out about the loss of color in the film so soon takes away the insatiable feeling the reader gets in the beginning of the book....

...Silva Music is incredibly important to this story. In fact, the story has been called "the best verbal description of transcendent musical experience" by a noted musician and ethnomusicologist. In what ways does music figure in the story? Why is it important that Sonny wants to be a musician? How good a musician is he? Discuss the importance of the fact that both Sonny and his dead uncle are/were musicians. Finally, look very closely at the last two pages of the story and discuss what happens when the narrator really listens to his brother play.
