Arts & Humanities - 7 December 2007

I'm looking for a few potential pieces to audition for college with this April. I'm already in the school, and changing to music education.

I'm an average player, not fantastic but definitely not bad. Band/orchestra pieces I've played range from Holst's Suite and Aquarium to Barnum and Baileys favorites and The Stars and Stripes forever.

I'm starting with a new lesson teacher after Christmas and he wants me to have some pieces for him to look at. Any suggestions would be very helpful! Thanks!

The last warm air of summer drew back
as the sun turned away,
the moon was faint through the clouds
turning grey.
Winter opened starless eyes,
her hard breath numbed the ground
where the dead leaves lay.

I thought I saw you today
at a distance
in the crowd.
You looked different somehow,
without me.
Flowers by the roadside
die so quickly in a vase,
you said.

I still find your hair
on my pillow,
your perfume lingers somewhere.

Maybe I'll see you again.

The rain has no sympathy,
spraying bright waves
in the breeze.
I walk,
more thoughtful now
through the shapeless wind,
Long coated in black and memory,
without your hand.

Time passes,
I become less sure of things.
The trees on the riverbank
still wait for you
in silence

I need to know the title of this really famous Romantic painting. Probably everybody's seen it before. It shows a guy dressed in black and carrying a cane standing up on this cliff and looking down at the scenery below. It was done by a European guy. I need to know this for a paper I'm writing on Romantisim. Thanks!

I am a teenager who desperately wants to get into the TV acting career, but I have no clue where to start. I live in the Chicago area, and I haven't done any commercials or small roles in TV shows yet. Are there any good places that can help me start on my TV acting career?
I have seen auditions for various TV shows where all you need to submit is a photo, demo reel, and resume. However, I do not really have anything to put on my resume, as literally all I have done in theatre is a school musical.

Thank you very much for all of your help and support!


*One more thing*
Please don't post answers that tell me I'll never make it in show business. I believe that I have what it takes, and I want to definitely give it my best shot.

i do. mine is the ancient romans, about 200yrs before the empire fell.

also, what do you guys think made the roman empire collapse? i think it was the senate's murder of ceasar, the fact that rome was to big and weak to protect itself, and that they adopted christianity.

(relax, ima Roman Catholic, i dont hate Him)

Do not you think that translating a poem makes a totally different poem? Do you prefer reading the original text or the translated one?

Hey guys,
I have a DSLR camera from Olympus, E-330, and I was wondering how can I take the pictures while its snowing outside. I understand there is a waterproof case for the camera, but I think its a bit too much, since I am not submerging underwater, but rather having some of that snow on the camera. Now, i haven't done it yet, because I am afraid it might ruin the system, but maybe there is a special case or method for taking such pictures. I am asking about taking the camera outside, not sitting at home taking pictures from my window. Any information will help. Thank you very much.

1. Lets keep it short
and
2. Lets not refer to some book (Bible, Koran or whatever).

What's your PERSONAL definition of God?

okay, i understand persons are trying to get everyone to be a "normal" weight... so now fat girls are "real" girls and skinny girls are all what? fake. In the same way some ppl are naturally fat, some people like myself are naturally skinny...theres NOTHING i can do about it for now and i cannot comprehend why persons would say... "oh barbie isnt real" ... or "noone looks like those skinny models"... wtf? i do!

& that dove real women campaign... yes some girls are "normal" (which in my view is of a healthy BMI) but MANY other are fatties, they are overweight and just as unhealthy as an underweight person... furthermore my my BMI is 18 (which is healthy enough) and im tall and i look very skinny and i am still HEALTHY & REAL.
