My Culture Paper

Whether you are a casual consumer or an avid listener, music plays a part in everyone’s life. For this
assignment, you will write a paper that details your personal cultural experiences with music. Think
about the ways music has entered your life. The paper must include the following:
– A short biography (Who are you? Where are you from? Where have you lived?)
– A detailed assessment of how music has figured into your life: Were you exposed to
music as a child? Was music a part of your family, community, or school life? How do
you consume music as you have grown older? What kinds of music do you like? What
concerts have you seen? Do you play an instrument? What are your favourite albums?
– An analysis of how you express yourself through music. What is it about the artists or
styles of music that you listen to that draws you to them? How does your taste in music
reflect your cultural values? What makes you dislike kinds of music that you choose not
to listen to?
