__Musical Scenery__ media type="file" key="MusicalSceneryProject-Dawest.mp3" My Musical Scenery is about my summer trip to Paris, France. It describes the places I went, the things and people I saw, and some of the food I ate. Everything was very unique.

__Symphony - First Movement__ My Symphony is about a rain storm. It is going to describe the beginning, middle, and end of what it would sound like if it were music. media type="file" key="DawesSymphony_FirstMovement.mp3" My first movement is the beginning of a storm; not exactly raining yet, but things are getting cloudy. Everything is dramatic and it ends with the rain stick playing. I like how I made this movement sound eerie and suspenseful but at the end, I made it sound a little happy and it ends with the rain stick and drums that I tried to make sound like clouds coming in or a foreshadow to the thunder in the next movement.

__Symphony - Second Movement__ media type="file" key="DawesSecondMovement.mp3" My second movement is the clouds rolling in, the thunder, lightning, and the actual storm. It ends with the rain ending and slowly coming to a stop. This movement is actually me playing the piano. It is a few altered parts from one of the songs I am currently playing, //Revere// (I don't remember the author...).

__Symphony - Third Movement__ media type="file" key="DawesThirdMovement.mp3"  My third movement is the conclusion of my symphony. It meets the requirement of being light because there are a lot of high notes and short notes. It is dance-like in the way that it is happy. The rain storm is gone and everything is fresh and new. Throughout my symphony, I kept bringing back the rain stick because I thought it really represented my symphony as the rain storm. I hope you have enjoyed listening to my symphony!
