 * < The Marimba Concerto was my favorite was my favorite performance piece. I thought this because I enjoyed watching the vibes player playing beautiful music. Also, I enjoyed that he was a professional musician and he was still only 18 years old. This is why Marimba Concerto was my favorite music performance of the concert. ||

One time, I remember the time I went to the Gulf of Mexico. It was over winter break about six years ago. This was a special memory because for one, it was over Christmas, and all Christmases are special. But this particular one was special because I saw dolphins!!! This was special because Dolphins are my all time favorite animal and I am totally obsessed with them. This was special because I got to see the animal that I love and see them in their natural habitat without being held captive or in cages. This is why I choose this as one special memory that I remember.

My unifying theme for my symphony will be soothing, calming, and relaxing. I will start with a basic moderate level of a classic structure. Then in the second movement, it will get soft and "pretty" and which will grow into the next movement, The next movement will then be faster and end the symphony with  (find out by listening!)

Symphony

Movement I media type="file" key="Jones_Movement I.mp3" Mostly Cello soloing performed by _ (Can you guess?) This will start the symphony with a classical feeling.

Movement II media type="file" key="Jones_Movement II 2.mp3" The main melody of Amazing Grace with some brass harmonizing. This second movement is following the overall symphony structure by being the slow and soft section which will lead into the third movement which is fast which represents balance.

Movement III media type="file" key="Jones_Movement III.mp3" . A very fast paced song consisting of mostly piano with orchestra strings backgrounds. It is balancing the previous slow movement.
