When I listen to classical music, I often times had a hard time understanding the music. Their musical philosophy seems to be very deep for me to fully appreciate it, yet somehow the magical sound draws me to the world of classical music. First of all, when I listen to the music that is done by worldly famous players, the music easily flows out with simple expressions of feelings. For example, when I try to express some feelings through music, it seems it is very complicated to do so. Yet, when I listen to the music that is done by famous players, I would understand more easily. Secondly, the author emphasizes the simplicity in interpreting music. I totally agree with his opinion. Much classical music is very long compared to other types of music. And that is why many people feel bored listening to the music. However, once you understand its simplicity in expressing composer’s and player’s emotion, the music is not boring anymore.
Furthermore, understanding on music by famous musician and emphasizing the simplicity are not only interpreting music. There is also joining with music. This means, you get to join their musical conversation. You become excited, calm, gloomy, fanatical, sad, or just very content from their musical stories. The author says, “Ideally, a 10 minute piece sounds like a four-minute piece.” Once you start conversing with music, you wouldn’t realize how fast the time has passed. This is just like talking with someone you love. The time goes always too fast, and you want to hang on to every second. You don’t want the magical moments to be ended. Once you get the taste of simplicity of feelings in classical music, you would love and appreciate every second of listening to the music.

When I listen to classical music, I often have a hard time understanding the music. Their (who is "their"? Antecedent error, I don't know who your pronoun is referring to.) musical philosophy seems to be too deep for me to fully appreciate, yet somehow the magical sound draws me to the world of classical music. First of all, when I listen to the music that is done by world famous players, the music easily flows out with simple expression of feelings. For example, when I try to express some feelings (watch out for repetition) through music, it seems it is very complicated to do so. Yet, when I listen to the music that is done by famous players, I understand it more easily. Secondly, the author (who is this author?) emphasizes the simplicity in interpreting music. I totally agree with his opinion. Much classical music is very long compared to other types of music, and that is why many people feel bored listening to it.

ReplyDeleteFurthermore, understanding music by famous musicians and emphasizing the simplicity are not only interpreting music. (Very awkward and confusing; unclear. Rewrite.) There is also joining (what do you mean "joining?" Word choice error.) with music. This means you get to join their musical conversation. You become excited, calm, gloomy, fanatical, sad, or just very content from their musical stories. The author (let's have his name) says, “Ideally, a 10 minute piece sounds like a four-minute piece.” Once you start conversing with music, you don't realize how fast the time has passed. This is just like talking with someone you love. The time always goes too fast, and you want to hang on to every second. You don’t want the magical moment to end.
