MLK for a day
I realy liked the art project that we did for Martin Luther King. The project consisted of me and the rest of the class listening to Peaceful Warrior. Then we made art inspired by the music of the album. We never heard the full album only shorter pieces of it. The music written by doctor Billy Taylor is truly astounding and we have not even heard the full album yet. The music is truly transfixing ,the way he blends the music is almost an unhuman blend of notes it is truly transfixing to listen to. The music is a piece to be truly admired.
