The Power of Music Discussion

We are currently reading: Charlton Experience Music 5th Edition
Prelude: The Culture of Medieval Europe; Chapter 4
Prelude: The Renaissance, the Rebirth of Humanism, Chapter 5
The Ancient Greeks believed music had the power to shape an individual’s character and they carefully regulated the musical education of young people. In Russia, Stalin used music for propoganda, insisting that music and all the arts depict Socialist Realism. Today we see music used in all sorts of advertisements in an attempt to influence consumers.
When I was a teenager many in my parents’ generation considered the Beatles to be a huge negative musical influence on my generation. Today it might be heavy metal or rap that the older generation is condemning as evil or negative.
What do you think? Does music influence behavior? Why are we drawn to certain kinds of music?

There are no right or wrong answers to these questions. This is a topic open to discussion and debate, so let’s hear what you think ….

“Whom You Love” Journal Entry

In Joseph O. Legasapi’s gorgeous poem, “Whom You Love,” he begins with a Creole proverb that suggests that we are the person that we love. In his poem, he describes in luscious detail the being that is his life partner. Much of this description is figurative, for example, in the opening line he refers to his partner as “The man whose throat blossoms with spicy chocolates.” Aside from this being a wonderfully descriptive line that is rich in visual imagery, the connotative meaning is alluring and suggestive. What does this line mean? What does it mean to you? For this journal, describe the man that is being painted in this poem. How do you imagine him to look like? What is his temperament? What is his life like? Where has been and where is he going? The poem is full of these suggestions. In this journal, answer these questions with support from the poem.
