Copland used many instruments, namely the marching band instrumens. The brass was used to carry the more important lines because brass instruments tend to blast their sound.

I could hardly remember the song at all for a…. strange reason. I was listening in the beginning and getting the impression of an introduction to the actual melody line. However, after a few minutes of listening to as far as i could tell the same exact thing, i realized there WAS no shift in music to come. Therefore, i never set my brain to “remember” mode. Saying that, obviously i found this to be boring….

The instruments used in this song were: the trumpets, the French horn, the gong, the drums, the trombone, and the tuba. The song had many low notes, as well as some softer notes. The piece sounded like a victory had just been won, or something triumphant and victorious was about to happen.

I personally think that this song is actually quite interesting. I think that it walks you through a story. You can hear in the beginning, the first time they heard the message, the excitement, the fear, the struggles, the confusions, the turning point, and the victory of the battle, as you are listening to this piece. You feel like you are listening to something amazing and spectacular happening, and you just want to know more about the battle. This song really reaches out and draws you in. I have heard this song many times in my life, and I wouldn’t be surprised if you’ve heard this song, as well. This song is very unique, interesting, and definitely exciting. Most songs either have a story, or they don’t. In most cases, if a song is trying to tell a story, it is difficult to understand what the story is about. On top of that, most songs with stories use words, instead of only using instruments. It takes more talent, and a lot of hard work to tell a story full of emotions and events, with only musical instruments. Even though I am not into classical music, I really do appreciate the story and the message behind this piece. I feel that it takes music to a whole other level. Fanfare for the Common Man is an awesome piece of music, which will be listened to and appreciated for years to come.

In this piece you here the combination of brass instruments and the drums. These istruments combined make a very patriotic tune. This song as a whole was meant to sound patriotic and that is what Aaron copland accomplished with the combination of instruments.

i like this tune probably because i like war movies and it is in many war movies. If it was not in war movies then it would not be something i would listen to in my free time.

Throughout the peice it got very loud and deep. I noticed that he used a variaty of instraments including brass instraments and precussion instruments. It made an amazing sound.

I really enjoyed listening to Fanfare for the Common Man because it was loud, had a fast tempo, and was exciting. I also liked that it wasnt to long. It was interesting!

In this peice, Copland used many instaments. He especially used percussion instraments, which gives the piece a very powerful feeling.

Although I wouldn’t go out and buy a CD with this type of music om it, I liked listening to it in class. It was a good peice for the type of music that it was.

The instruments that are in the piece are a trombone, brass,, drums, and a trumpet. When all these instruments are played at one time they sound really good.

I thought that this piece was better than all of the other pieces that we had listened to. Unlike the other pieces this one ha d a lot of action and it made a lot of noise. Also unlike thwe other pieces this wasn’t sloww and boring.
