A Cappella? Is That How You Spell It?
1180 Words - 5 Pages

.... a cappella - two words, two "p's", two "l's." singing without instruments A Capella? Some musical dictionaries indicate that the Italian a cappella is preferred over the Latin a capella (one "p") yet both are technically correct. Why do those dictionaries muddy the waters with two spellings? The phrase was first used in Italian Catholic churches, where Latin was the language for sacred text.

Notes took new shapes and stems were added to some notes according to their length. By the 1600's the notes had ....


Personal Writing: A Beck Concert
447 Words - 2 Pages

.... Beck's concert would involve many opportunities in the future, but they made the "CHOICE" to throw that all away. A creation is right.
