Words: 193

Pages: 1

As far as I can remember I was never good at writing but, I still love to write. I normally write in my personal journals, Facebook status, texts, Instagram, and Snapchat. The writings that I write on there are usually a mess which means I do not care for my grammar, punctuation, or sentence structure.

Daniel Felsenfeld's Rebel Music

Felsenfeld’s narrative, “Rebel Music”, he talks about his interaction with classical music within his early to adult life. This appeals to me because I fit quite similarly to the kind of story he tells, but more on the vocal music spectrum of things. The drive of his essay was to dictate how he categorizes himself as a rebel. To me, it brought up how he learned to fall in love with music, the meaning of being a “rebel”, and how it became a passion. When assessing and responding to a narrative discussing…
