See with your Ears (150 words/GROUP)

For today's blog post, we will use words (verbal) to describe what sounds (auditory) allow us to see (visual).

This assignment has two parts (at least 150 words):

Part 1: LISTEN to the instrumental musical selection posted to VISTA/BLACKBOARD. Try to imagine a scene as a you listen. Describe the setting based on the music and sounds that you hear. What does it look like? What do you suppose is happening? Are there people there? If so, what are they doing? Be as descriptive and creative as possible. Listen to the entire selection - as the dynamics of the music change, perhaps your imagined scene should change as well.

Part 2: EXPLAIN the reasoning behind your scenario/storyline/charcters/etc. You must connect your essay to the music – what is it about the sound and music that led you to see/write what you did?
