Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Take the 'A' Train" is a jazz standard by Billy Strayhorn that was the signature tune of the Duke Ellington orchestra. In 1999, National Public Radio included this song in the "NPR 100", in which NPR's music editors sought to compile the one hundred most important American musical works of the 20th century. The tune which was taken from Duke Ellington and his famous orchestra's 1941 album "Hollywood" was included in the soundtrack of the 2008 video game release Grand Theft Auto IV from the fictitious in-game jazz music radio station "JNR 108.5 (Jazz Nation Radio)".

Answer 2

Answer:

The most interesting characteristic of this piece is that each instrument is heard separately rather than with the accompaniment. The trumpets and trombones are played with mutes to produce syncopations in the beginning. The song has a swing and big band feel. There are extended trumpet solos, with each instrument shining in its own time. In the end, the entire band plays the melody together.

How was Apollo affected by the fall of Icarus?

Answers

Answer:

Hi! kxxrishima here! Hope this helps! <3

Explanation:

Apollo was greatly hurt by the fall of Icarus, though Icarus's decision was the nature of human indifference.

Answer:

Man has forever pushed himself to the limits trying to achieve the impossible. Discoveries and inventions are perhaps man's way to escape from the mundane or simply to alter his life. Such an effort is the myth of Daedalus and Icarus, a brilliant story of how necessity facilitated the invention of something that was never meant for man and how it led to his downfall. Myth though it may be, the story of Daedalus and Icarus wants to show us that the power of man has no limits but also that we should be very careful how to use this power.

The intelligence of Daedalus was known far and wide. He was accredited as the finest artificer ever, with a sharp and clever mind. Daedalus was living and working in Athens and he had a young apprentice in his workroom, his nephew, Talus. Talus was an extraordinarily talented boy and had begun showing traces of being a craftsman far surpassing his uncle's skill. As it is to the nature of man, Daedalus was highly envious of his nephew's proficiency. One day while on a visit to the Acropolis, Daedalus pushed him off the edge. Some say that the boy whom Daedalus had pushed off the edge of the Acropolis was not Talus but his sister's son Perdix, who was apprenticing to him. To stop Perdix from being dashed upon the ground below, the benevolent Goddess Athena transformed him into a bird that flew away to safety. Legend has it that this bird has since been known as the Partridge and wary of its tragic past avoids high places and nestles in hedges. Whoever was the victim, the artificer was put into trial by Areios Pagus, the supreme court of Athens, and charged with murder. His punishment was to get banished from Athens to the island of Crete.

Unfortunately for Daedalus, the King had imprisoned him and his young son, Icarus in a high tower, so that they couldn't reveal the secret of the labyrinth to anyone. Daedalus and Icarus were languishing in their prison atop the tower. Every day the master craftsman was pondering over their escape and how they could work such a miracle. He suddenly realized that their only escape route was by air since King Minos had control over every vessel that left the island. Moreover, Minos had issued strict orders to search thoroughly every ship leaving Crete. Instead of growing impassivity over their fate, Daedalus received a marvelous plan. He had observed the birds that were flying around the tower. He studied in great detail their mannerisms and hit upon his idea of how to escape.

The fall of Icarus

Unfortunately, Icarus soon forgot his father's warning and filled with the exhilaration of flying, he flew too high and too close to the sun. The intense heat melted the wax on the wings, the feathers came loose. A few minutes later, poor Icarus plummeted down into the sea and was drawn. Daedalus was struck with horror but there was nothing he could do to save his son. Aggrieved at his loss, he named the sea-spot where his son had drowned and the close by island after his name. The sea was named the Icarian Sea and the island was named Ikaria. Some sources mention that at the time Icarus fell into the sea, the mighty Hercules was passing by and he gave the fallen Icarus a befitting burial. Berating himself for his tragic loss, he continued to fly towards Sicily where he sought refuge in the Court of King Cocalus of Camicus. With the King's help, he constructed a temple dedicated to Apollo and as an offering to the god hung up his wings for good.

Solving the trick-puzzle

At Crete, an irate King Minos seethed and fumed over Daedalus' incredible escape. The only thought on his mind was to recapture the skilled artificer and bring him back to Knossos. Minos knew that Daedalus would have disguised himself to avoid recognition and therefore hunting him out would be no easy task. However, he did know that the artificer couldn't refuse a challenging riddle or a puzzling task. Minos set out from Crete in search of Daedalus and wherever he went he offered a handsome reward to anyone who could run a thread through a spiral sea-shell. He knew that this was a very complex puzzle and Daedalus would be challenged to solve it. One day, Minos reached Camicus and announced the same reward and task. Many people came and tried to solve the puzzle but had no avail.

Feeling guillty till the end

Knowing well that his disguise had been seen through, Daedalus decided to leave Camicus, much to the disappointment of the King and his daughters. He was last seen in Sardinia in the company of Iolaus, who was nephew to Hercules. Since then, no one knows what happened to this great engineer, what places he saw, what inventions he created, what miracles bore his mind. Today Daedalus represents for us a brilliant person who had been cursed to suffer because of his special talent. The peak of his misfortune was living with the guilt that he caused the death of his son.

2. I think that it would be possible to recreate this movie as a theater production. However, there are dinosaurs, especially big dinosaurs that might be difficult to make realistic without CGI. The specific scenes where they are running away from dinosaurs or moving around a lot, for example in the lab at the beginning of the movie, would be hard to create on stage for the lack of space.

3. I feel like the actors would've had a hard time pretending they were running from a dinosaur, or expressing fear, because in reality, there was nothing there. On stage, they might be able to do this more easily because there would be something actually there.

6. I liked the facial expressions and music during the intense parts. The characters were terrified of these big dinosaurs that got loose.

How were metal engravings made?
a.
using a brayer
b.
using a burnishing tool
c.
using the intaglio technique
d.
none of the above

Answers

The answer is C using a intaglio technique

Metal engravings are made by using the intaglio technique. The correct option is C. With the use of a burin, a short steel rod with a sharpened V-shaped point, the engraver would carve impressions into the plate.

When was metal engraving invented?

Around the middle of the 15th century, engraving independently developed in the German Rhine valley and northern Italy. German goldsmiths, the most notable of whom are Master E.S. and the Master of the Playing Cards, are said to have created it first. They are now only known by their initials or aliases.

A metal plate is sliced into lines during the intaglio printmaking technique of engraving in order to contain the ink. The engraving plate might be composed of zinc or copper. To ensure that only the deliberate lines will be printed, the metal plate is first polished to remove any blemishes and defects from the surface.

Thus, the ideal selection is option C.
