Take Me Away- Globus
This week we learned about instrumentation and timbre in music appreciation and what would you know I would find a song that showcases both these topic on Friday afternoon. I had never even heard about Globus before but YouTube is a amazing thing and I just happened to stumble upon the group while looking for another song. They blend not only the typical instruments of a band: drum kit, electric guitars, bass guitar, but they also pull in strings and even a choir. Most of their songs, especially Take Me Away, give off this amazing feeling of something building, you imagine this huge battle building and then it reaches this climax as the choir joins in and there's just this swell of feeling. I have to say that this is one of the better finds on YouTube, so much better than the cat playing piano.
