There are many rules and tips that a musician must know before, during, and after the sight reading process to effectively play the music presented to them.

The judge will now give his/her personal opinion on the music preformed. The judge will most likely start by commenting on the positive elements of the performance and will eventually lead in to the elements that were not so good. During this time, the judge may ask questions or might ask the musician to replay a certain part of the music. When asked a question, they should respond with an intellectual answer. Saying I don’t know with a slum shake of the head back and forth will not cut it. It is important to only speak when asked to do so because it can be perceived as being rude if the musician is talking during the judges’ time to talk. If the judge asks for a certain part of the song to be fixed and replayed, make sure to exaggerate the part that was asked to be fixed. This will let the judge know that the musician was honestly paying attention to what they had to say. Remember to be polite and smile. This will show the judge that the musician wants to be there and is confident instead of nervous. After the judge is done speaking, the sheet music should be placed back into the folder provided. Once all the music folders are collected, the musician should gather all of their belongings from under their seat. One last important tip, relax! The most nerve-racking part is
For criminal trials, judges must inform the jury to the best of their ability on relevant laws and offer proper guidance. Hence resulting in a consistent application of the criminal law where justice is
During a musical performance many elements to be looked are not easily recognized by the average critic. A musical performance has multiple interactions taking place between the music, text, performers, audience, and space that all can contribute to a great performance. Overwhelming majority of the audience does not realize so much can be looked at during a single performance. At a performance by the University of Maryland Marching Band I was able to analyze the Musical Sound, Contexts of the Performance, and Interpretation of the Performance.
After a period of time the trial would come to an end. At the end of the court proceedings both sides of the court would give closing statements. These statements would be used to remind the jury of the evidence produced throughout the duration of the trail. These statements are also opportunity for hypothetical scenarios, and campaign to the jurors why they should decide in favor of their client.
Cook uses an array of musical terms in order to establish this connection, like “notes of ink”, “concert of phrases” and “written key signature”. The contrast between the ideas of writing and music is what creates the overall metaphor. The juxtaposition of two very different senses, sight and hearing, are what make the metaphor effective. This is something new to the reader, and causes he or she to consider what it might be like to actually visualize music. This is different, however, from a physical score or printed sheet music. Cook states that “notes of ink resonate through the / lines and curves of script”(Cook 4-5) as though the sound itself can be captured onto paper. The parallelism and cataloguing of musical and literary terms help the reader imagine how deaf people may experience music. This is evident in the listing in the second stanza: “…sharps, flats, and naturals become / nouns, verbs, and adjectives…”(Cook 14-15). Of course, it isn’t very easy to translate the sensation of listening to music onto paper, however in this case poetry is supposed to take the place of music, and should provide a similar sensation to the reader. Writing is something that can easily be shared across all mediums – whether it is read aloud or silently, poetry is something that can be enjoyed
Judges preside over criminal and non-criminal proceeding as an impartial party to the evidence and arguments presented by the defense and prosecuting attorneys. His or her role as a judge in a jury trial is to act as a mediator between the defense and prosecution ensuring proper court room procedures are being followed to guarantee that a fair trial is administered. Judges are charged with hearing testimony, arguments and viewing evidence determining what is strong enough to support proof beyond reasonable doubt and passes judgment of guilt or innocents based on facts presented (Judges Role in Court, n.d.). Similarly, juries will take on the judge’s role in a trial by jury to determine proof beyond reasonable doubt of prove guilt or innocents. Judges in any case can remove testimony, statements or evidence from any portion of the trial if he or she feels it to be not in accordance procedure, not pertinent, bias, corrupt or weak.

Music plays a major role in life for most people. It can soothe and excite, encourage sleep and encourage dancing, we can sing to it and ponder it. There are so many different uses of music and so many mediums through which to play it such as Pandora, Spotify, YouTube, etc. Beyond that, more songs every day there are new songs being written. Statistics show that ninety-five percent of all Americans think that music is a core part of a balanced and well-rounded education. The same study showed that ninety-three percent of Americans thought music belonged in the public schooling system, and seventy-nine percent even suggested that music education should be mandatory for all students. Still, studies show that a staggering twenty percent of high school students choose
It is crucial in the legal system to keep our professionalism not only inside of the courtroom, but also outside of the courtroom. You do not bring the courtroom news and spread it all over the county. Keep trials private and only disclose information about it inside of the courtroom.

If your caught doing something your not supposed to do outside of the courtroom, this can hurt your credibility and this can hurt you in the courtroom. You 're only as worthy as your word itself- try keeping your character

Sometimes in band I misread how to play my music, but I am willing to learn more about melodies to get past this point.
Almost everything that takes place within a courtroom is essentially a procedural formality. Judges are seemingly there to ensure that defendants agreed to a plea deal voluntarily and that they understand the rights they have subsequently waived. There really isn’t much room for defense attorneys to advocate inside the actual courtroom. However, later in the day I witnessed a pretrial preceding that provided me with a lesson I’ll never forget.
The courtroom is a place where cases are heard and deliberated as evidence is produced to prove whether the accused person is innocent or guilty. Different courtroom varies depending on the hierarchy and the type of cases, they deliberate upon in the courtroom. In the United States, the courts are closely interlinked through a hierarchical system at either the state or the federal level. Therefore, the court must have jurisdiction before it takes upon a case, deliberate, and come up with a judgment on it. The criminal case is different from the civil cases, especially when it comes to the court layout. In this essay, I will explain how I experienced a courtroom visit and the important issues are learnt from the visit.
Friedrich Nietzsche once said, “Without music, life would be a mistake”. Music is almost as old as the human race and is as much a part of it as anything. So why would anyone choose to get rid of it? An Increasing number of schools across the nation are deciding to cut music education programs. This includes band, orchestra, choir, and general music classes. In 1991, 55.4 percent of public school eighth-graders took part in music classes at school. In 2004, this figure was just 49.1 percent. Money plays a huge role in this statistic: “...when funds are scarce, arts courses are usually the first to be dropped from a school’s curriculum” (“Arts Education”). While many argue that music education is an unnecessary cost for schools, it improves student’s overall well being.
