2. Paper content, minimum of 2 pages, no more than 4 – one document for BOTH listening selections. They do not have to be tied together.

Ex. The Flower Duet by Leo Delibes

This is where you start the content of your paper, reviewing the listening selecting The Flower Duet. When you finish talking about The Flower Duet you can start a new section.

Selection of Your Choosing

This is where you talk about the musical selection of your choice. You can start a new section for this title as you can see in this example. When you finish writing about both selections it would be nice if you provided a summary and/or conclusion to your paper to help tie in to what you learned over the course and not just randomly stop talking.

3. Works cited/References page including references for required readings, required listening selection, listening selection of your choice, any other sources you might use in your paper.

Rubric – items that can affect the final grade of the assignment

· Minimum of 2 pages, no more than 4 (not including cover sheet or works cited page)

· Correct font and size (Times New Roman 12 pt)

· Spelling, grammar, sentence structure, etc.

· Thoughtful application of the elements of music to your analysis of the listening selections. Mainly I am looking for your own impressions of the music with the knowledge you have learned from this class. Take into consideration the story behind the music, the composer, and the musicians. How are they bringing the story across to you? How does it speak to you? Why this piece is meaningful to you? What is something you got out of listening to the music as a more focused and informed listener compared to your previous interpretation, expectation, experience, etc. of this music? Did any of this change your feelings or experience when listening to this piece of music? Etc.

Dear HGTC Community,
As you may be aware, University of South Carolina system schools have experienced tremendous losses in the past week. At HGTC, we all work to provide a safe campus environment where our students can be successful. Dr. Harris Pastides, president of the University of South Carolina, has challenged USC students to pledge to take steps to increase safety when using ride-sharing services. In support of the efforts at USC, I urge you to join me in embracing the pledge. Pledge that you will NEVER use a ride-sharing service without doing the following: Ensure the license plate, make, model and color of the vehicle match the information in your app and the driver matched the photo and name in the app; AND Ask the driver “WHAT’S MY NAME?” If the driver doesn’t say your name, DO NOT get into the vehicle. Please review and stay familiar with these ride-sharing safety tips. Your safety is and will always be paramount to me and this college, and we work tirelessly with the Office of Public Safety to ensure all of you feel secure in your environment. Please do not hesitate to contact me, the Office of Public Safety, or the Office of Student Affairs at 843-349-5228 for additional safety and student resources.

The Defence of Fort McHenry

Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light

What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?

Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,

O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?

And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,

Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave

O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
