Movement # 1 media type="file" key="allensmovement 1.mp3" As in this movement it is as if you are sitting down at a dance recital were they act out their steps. When you hear the instruments mash together you will feel a vibe of excitement in the begging as it slows a bit towards the end, just as if you were in the middle of a thrilling movie and you uncover the secrets to what you had not known before just then it comes to a conclusion then you will see in this theme of the movement excitement that tone turns down in the next movement with calmness kind of like you now know what really happened in the end of the movie. You will see that in my next movement # 2!  Movement # 2 media type="file" key="allens movement 2.mp3" My theme for this piece is calm and relaxing. If you follow along you would think of this beat as a symbol to dance with a loved one. It is soothing the way you hear the lake move as if its not really moving. The scene I would picture in my mind is the state of unconsciousness were nothing matters deer run by in peace, meadows sing in the wind as they get whooshed around. and the breathe of life takes over as a parent sees their new baby. The point is that my theme is soothing, in this movement. Then the movements over and your happy and you want to dance, you will see this in movement # 3.

Movement # 3 media type="file" key="allensmovement 3.mp3" width="236" height="19" Now in this theme I wanted to put in happiness just like going to hang out with friends at a dance or maybe a restaurant that plays music having a good time. When you do so you feel alive and when you hear this you want to jump to your feet and relax with a band playing like being at a carnival where the stroke of midnight of the forth of July and the band plays as loud as can be. Just then you kind of are tired and you get the feeling of excitement were you will then see in movement # 4.

 Movement # 4 media type="file" key="allensmovement four.mp3" In this movement it is similar to the first one. You have the sitting down at a recital, the watching the movie, but you also have at the end the completion to a day. You will hear the final note and its as if you slip off your shoes, sluggishly walk to your bed, and plot down to fall asleep. This movement is showing that there is an ending to every begging, you just need to find it. i must tell you that it is the point of my movements to show you that music is life and when something in a song changes so does life. first there's the movie, then the relaxing after the movie were you can sit down and think, next the party as it hits midnight, and lastly the tiredness and looking on what happened after the day past were you fall into your bed. My whole movement together as a whole is about knowing there's an ending like I said before to every story.

Memory media type="file" key="south cariolina night.mp3" A couple of years ago I remember sitting on my grand-parents porch smelling the fresh air of my grandfather burning wood in a bomb fire. Looking at the flame it was giant, and I can feel the aroma of the heat brushing against my skin. It was a brilliant cool night in the middle of summer and I wished that I can hold this moment forever, my family telling jokes my grandpa working on the fire, his cats running around and all I could think about is not wanting to leave the stars behind leaving South Carolina and going back to Chicago. Even thou I felt happiness I could feel the presence 0f silence and that air, the image of happiness and the feeling of being on top of the world and all thou i knew it was going to end nothing I can tell you can show you how to embrace life it is a simple memory you have to have yourself. the thing that helps me keep that vivid memory in my mind is the silence of not having to say single thing just to look into the stars.
