Meet my Jazz band. This is a picture of us in New Orleans my junior year during spring break to play Jazz. I decided upon this picture because this band has had such a profound impact on how I frame my future. My connection with music through the piano has been fostered ever since I could reach those shiny black and white collection of keys.

My musical involvement has also shown me that hard work and practice can make anything

Each song made me feel different, I could sense the emotion coming from these songs and the way the musicians played together added a feeling of satisfactory altogether. The venue had a large impact on the performance. The Nightingale Concert Hall provided great acoustics for the performances and fit well with the overall style of the concert.
I doubly enjoy teaching youth because the cognitive processes that drive active learning fascinate me and I can directly scrutinize them by enriching the younger generation’s pursuits through outreach. I long to continue promoting education as a teaching assistant with the Neighborhood Schools Program and as a volunteer alongside peers in the Service Match Program at the Ryan Banks Academy. Additionally, a creative outlet for music is a necessity as a lifelong cellist and guitarist eager to delve into new musical genres. With the Major Music Organization, I have a creative vehicle to perform regularly. I can even incorporate my passion for teaching youth and music through the Woodlawn Free School for Music, where I can share my music capabilities with South Side

A variety of instruments were used in this piece, including woodwinds, brass, percussion, and strings.

When I was selected to serve as band president for the 2015 marching band, I was both honored and excited for the upcoming season.

The purpose of this paper is to assess the impact of trauma on an 11-year old male. Initially mental health and healthcare professionals believed that children did not experience long-term negative responses to traumatic events. It was thought that children would undergo initial reactive responses to the trauma, but only for a short time and then they would have complete recovery (Bodvarsdottir, Elklit, & Gudmundsdottir, 2006).
