Critical Thinking Question
If you collect too much information for analyzing a decision, you can suffer from analysis paralysis, where you spend too much time thinking about a decision rather than making one. Recall a major financial decision you made recently, such as of a car or housing purchase or rental. Describe your process for making the decision. How could analysis paralysis have affected this process? (In 200-400 words) (Marks 1.5)[supanova_question]

Respond to the following prompts.
Choose a piece of program music from one of the options listed on the Canvas page.
Indicate the title, composer, year of composition, and genre of your chosen piece in the box below.
Type answer here.
Now, conduct some research to learn what the program (the story behind the piece) is.
Enter the title and composer of your chosen work in a search engine along with the phrase “program notes” (use quotation marks).
Choose at least two sources from major symphony orchestras. Most orchestras associated with big cities (such as the Chicago Symphony Orchestra or the New York Philharmonic) can be trusted to have reliable information. You may need to read a few programs until you understand the story behind the piece.
Read the program notes for the musical work you chose.
You may use Wikipedia in addition to your two program notes sources. If you use Wikipedia, please cite it in section 4 below.
Using the information you learned from your sources, describe the program (what the piece is about) in the box below. Use your own words to paraphrase and summarize the information. Do not copy and paste or use direct quotes.
Type answer here.
Create full APA, MLA, or Chicago style citations for your sources and enter them in the box below.
Type answer here.
Listen to the complete full-length recording of your chosen piece provided on the Canvas page. Pay careful attention to hear how the music reflects the program.
Choose a minimum of three distinct sections in the musical work you listened to that depict a specific part of the story. For example, if you were doing Mendelssohn’s Overture to Midsummer Night’s Dream, you might identify the part of the story where Bottom is turned into a donkey and describe how Mendelssohn uses rapid high-low pitches to reflect the “hee-haw” sound a donkey makes.
Be sure to refer to the programs you read for this! You are not being asked to make up your own interpretation of the music, you are being asked to show that you can match the musical events described in the program to what you are hearing in the recording.
Use musical vocabulary terms in bold font to describe how the music was designed to reflect the story/program. Use time markers to indicate where these musical events occur.
Extra- Musical Event
Pick a specific part of the story and describe it here
Time Marker(s)
