Quality vs Quantity
The quality of sound; the showing of feeling, movement, and good articulation. What is to be, the sound is carried whether it is 5 or 500 people in a band. Sound can be carried with just a soloist if they believe and they play with good feeling. The quality of the sound; to be or not to be. What is to tell is to show and become. Play with good quality, doesn't matter how big the band is.

The Dark Silence
The world would cease to exist without the thought of personality and life. If music didn't show its true colors and cower in the dark shadows, everyone would be coming into the plain world with its grey color. Grey would be represented as the simple and dull life that everything-not just everyone- would be exposed to. I live with a life full of vibrant, saddened, and infuriated colors; a life full of music. If you live without music, the rest of your life will be lived without any emotion.

Vital is to be Unison
Music is to carry the sound through the choice of place. Ears are able to distinguish what and who is playing the unison sound. The eyes can be deceiving when into play. During a mandatory concert, a determined and hard-working band must exceedingly push the sound all the way the last row of curious ears. They must hear or else the sound is fumbling; to show none of unison or even confidence. When you, the explorer of the life of band, show the integrity of hearing (not seeing) the need of band, you can play with confidence and guide the other players to fix what they are mistakingly doing, or else the band will have no unison. Unison is the key to unlock everything. It can show that your determined band can play, no not play, but perform. :)

Getting the Ring
Impatient I was, yet my contained excitement was still and did not stir. My talents for music had increased, and I did not have the need to brag. People call me the best like a worship, but I don't like the irking spotlight. All is to perform. Like all others, I have my days where my abilities slip through my tightly closed fingers. To look through, my music must "fly off the page"-so to speak- or else my sound is certain for weakness and does not carry itself.
Music with Difference
Music is my life. I play and study music every day. It's my 3rd year playing, and I play the Bari, Tenor, and Alto Saxophone. I bring notes hovering over the page. I'm in the top band of the school, and my conductor has put me in select jazz band. Somedays... I don't need to play jazz, but now here typing this, I regret this and now say that I need Jazz. It calms me when anger gets the best of me. Jazz relaxes me in the worst and most stressful hour of the day. I love to play it, because well... it's my life :)
