The first idea that I learned in this course that intrigued me was the diversity in music and how it has developed within different cultures. One element in particular was Vivaldi. He specialized in composing concertos [kun-CHAIR-tohs], a three-movement secular form of instrumental music.

The Second ideal that I have learned in this course that intrigued me was the painted art of the 17th century. One part includes the fact that many of the painting during those times was able to capture and tell a story through precision and detail. Sir Peter Paul Rubens, Massacre of the Innocents is one of my favorite painting. The Massacre of Innocents was one of my favorites. The Massacre of the Innocents, 1611 was painted by Peter Paul Rubens and is held in the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto. Although the elements depicted in the painting is quite disturbing, I prefer this this piece because it captures the horror of how the innocents, especially in children can be destroyed in an instant by the hands of man.

The third idea that I learned in this course that intrigued me was the Harlem Renaissance. I found substance in learning the different cultural movement though out the early 1900's. I was great learning about how the black culture was recognized in literature, art and music.

My cultural event experience was The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. The day at the Virginia Museum of Fine Art left me feeling more educated and in tune with other cultures and how they lived, and died in art. I felt fascinated by all of the artwork and how others who attended the museum were just as interested as I was. It was incredible to see how the institution took such pride and time in creating an environment for me and the attendees to not only understand what exactly we were seeing and learning, but showing the different arts. I had never been to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and didn't know exactly what to expect. I didn't realize how big the museum was and just how many different artifacts that was inside. The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts will be a place to remember.
