Bugle Calls
Simply playing several bugle calls, and
then playing 'Taps' will quickly illustrate the power of music in bringing emotions into play. Fading
light dims the sight, And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright. From afar drawing nigh -- Falls the night. Day is done, gone the sun, From the lake, from the hills, from the sky; All is well, safely rest, God
is nigh. Then good night, peaceful night, Till the light of the dawn shineth bright; God is near,
do not fear -- Friend, good night.
The many variations of the 'Star Spangled Banner' illustrate the considerable power of music to evoke emotions
- especially when the Jimmy Hendrix version is included.
