Hyundai Alcazar Signature Turbo 6S- ₹21.3 lakh | Real-life review

[the-fox-and-the-shadow]

[After a bit of walking, they get to a clearing, with a large circular fenced-off ring, definitely having enough space for a fight without getting close to the spectators. There's a table at the far side with various wooden weapons. A tall Draconic with long pale grey hair, feathered wings, and light seafoam eyes, with a crown on on her head balanced between multiple sets of horns steps into the ring, making her way to the middle before bowing to the audience.]

"Welcome, We're glad to have you all here for Lux Aura's Festival of Ice! I am Spes Cantus, current ruler of Lux Aura. Like every year, it's a pleasure to be here, and to see so many faces, both new and old. It is time for our festival sparring match, as even in times of peace we can train our skills and abilities! The same rules as always are in place; Do not strike the head or spine, show respect to your opponent whether you win or lose, and keep the fight as fair as possible. Victory is determined if one manages to pin the other down for more than five seconds or holds the 'blade' of their weapon to their opponent's neck."

[Around 7 pm, Vizerxa gently wakes Ranpo by petting his hair. She's holding a couple thick coats, gloves, boots, and a scarf, all in ranpo's size. She doesn't know how well he can tolerate the cold and doesn't want him to be uncomfortable in Salha.]

"It's almost time for us to go. 're you ready?"

[servus-immaculatae]

Ave Regina Caelorum (Hail Queen of Heaven) is one of the four chant antiphons from the Divine Office that are sung for each season of the liturgical year. It is traditionally sung at the end of the Compline of February 2 (normally the Feast of the Purification) until the Compline of Wednesday in Holy Week. The hymn praises Our Lady, acknowledging her Queenship over heaven and angels, and extolling her unparalleled beauty and favor with God. It also acknowledges her as the mediator between men and Our Lord Jesus Christ, as it asks her to pray for us to Our Lord. Lyrics: Latin text Ave Regina caelorum, Ave Domina Angelorum: Salve radix, salve porta, Ex qua mundo lux est orta: Gaude Virgo, gloriosa, Super omnes speciosa, Vale o valde decora, Et pro nobis Christum exora. English translation: Hail, queen of heaven, Hail lady of the angels. Hail, root, hail door From whom the Light of the world was born. Rejoice, glorious Virgin, Precious above all. Hail, O very beautiful one, And plead for us to Christ.

MOTETUS_ Vos nunc, Etrusce iubar, salvete puellae. / Sic sedet hoc animo / Nec sine amore moror. / Stant foribus Nymphis similes, stant / Naiades utque / Aut ut Amazonides aut procidives Venus. / Fervet in amplexus atque / Oscula dulcia quisque; / Si semel has viderit, captus amore cadet. / Ista, deae mundi, vester per saecula cuncta, / Guillermus cecini natus et ipse Fay. //

DeJ Loaf, Musician

“Growing up, I was always just into music. Some people played sports—I always gravitated to music. It was my escape as a kid. I came up in a household where they played all the jams. My parents used to listen to R&B, rap, everything…Jay-Z, Nas, Mary J. Blige, Sade. Toni Braxton is one of my favorites. Now that I’m older, I’m also listening to a lot of jazz. When my first mixtape came out, I was a sneakerhead, which is part of the reason it was titled Just Do It. Outside of Nike and sneakers though, that motto told me to stop procrastinating, follow my dreams, and just do it. Even with my upcoming album, Liberated, it’s still my motto. It’ll always be. But now, I’m having fun with my image. I first came on the scene with short hair, curls, and a bucket hat. Three years later, I got braids and it feels like I post a different hairstyle on my Snapchat every day. It can be tough to switch up your image, but it’s about growth for me.

Speaking of which, I used to be so scared to wear makeup. I never understood why girls wore it until I started wearing it. It enhances beauty a little bit–it’s fun. Glitter is one of my things. I like putting it under the eye; lately, I’ve been using the Urban Decay’s Heavy Metal Glitter in Glam Rock and Midnight Cowboy. Being very vocal about what I want in a look is somethiing I’m learning. I love wings with eyeliner, but I’m not into smoky eyes or dark lips. I like a nude lip, I love shimmer, and a good highlight is important. And of course, so is a little lash. I don’t have a favorite brand, but I love mink eyelashes. The Kara ones I use are definitely more silky and luxe than others I’ve tried. But I try not to do that much. My natural lashes are already pretty cool. My Better Than Sex mascara is something I’ve been liking actually. And today, I picked up Fenty Beauty’s Killawatt in Trophy Wife for a highlight. I’m into gold–yellow is my thing. I had yellow hair for Fashion Week, and also a Basquiat look that was kind of unplanned. My lips don’t have any dryness at the moment, but that’s because I’ve been using e.l.f.’s Lip Exfoliator. Lip scrubs are important for me because I smoke when I’m in California, but I still need to have my lips on point.

My favorite foundation is MAC Studio Fix in NC50, the one in the pump. That and their Pro Longwear Concealer in NC45 and NC50 is what I use when I’m getting a look done. I’ve been trying to practice, and I use only MAC products when I’m doing my own. I’m a beginner–I’ll eventually work up to other brands. [Laughs] For eyeshadow, I’m currently using the Karrueche x ColourPop She Palette. I like to go with the light colors—rosy pinks and natural tones are the furthest I’ll go. I’m wearing Rihanna’s Gloss Bomb right now–it reminds me of the nude Lipglass I had when I collaborated with MAC. Hers is kind of pink and has a little shimmer, but when I put it on, it fits my natural lip color which is cool. When I go out tonight, I’m going to have to bring my lip gloss.

On nights out, I like to smell clean instead of a sweet or strong scent. Usually, it’s L’Eau D’issey by Issey Miyake or Eternity by Calvin Klein, but CK One by Calvin Klein is one of my favorite scents. Oh, and I also love Aventus by Creed. You spray that Creed and you can really get the night going.

My hair’s a little…different, so I like to use Murray’s Pomade instead of ORS’ Edge Control. [Laughs] I use that and it lays them down. And Cantu Shea Butter is pretty much all I use for haircare. I love the shampoo and conditioner because of how it feels. How often I wash my hair per week depends on how long I keep my hairstyles in, but I don’t like to leave in any kind of product. I don’t like things that feel hard on the hair—I like a soft finish. Braids–they’re sporty, they’re easy, you can put it up, you can do whatever. With them, you start off with one style and then it can become three or four later on. It’s always fun to play with them and I would love to have my hair like this everyday, but the time it takes to get done…that’s the downside. When I’m done with a style, I take it out and wash it using all my conditioning stuff. My mom does hair, so I know to do a hot oil treatment before I wash my hair once a month.

When I have a night off, I’ve probably got on pair of shades–no makeup. I relax when I can. I really do enjoy masks and candles. I like Dr. Teal’s Lavender Bubble Bath–it’s like an Epsom bath. When it’s an ideal setup: I’m in a hotel, music is playing…it’s perfect. Lavender is something I love to have in everything. But I also use sandalwood incense a lot. I just like it to feel like nature in my space–like, in my house I always have plants, flowers–it’s good to get back to that feeling, you know?

I can’t tell anyone my spots in Atlanta. Everybody will start coming! But…I do go to live music places. There’s a place I love called Cafe 290, and the audience is all older people and it’s very low-key. People come and perform; it’s karaoke, it’s drinks, it’s food. I’m a wings girl, depending on where we go while I’m there. The best wings I’ve ever had are in Detroit, my hometown, from a place called Sweetwater Tavern. People don’t know that Detroit has some of the top wings! But while I’m out, my favorite drinks are dark. Depending on the night, I like Jameson and whiskey in general. And I like Hennessy, obviously.”

CLASSICAL / 2017-2018

Cantus

PERFORMANCE / DEMONSTRATION

So, What’s Going On?

Meet Cantus--eight men who use their voices to make a big sound and an even bigger impact within the music community.

Cantus (pronounced CAHN-toos) is a choral chamber ensemble committed to creating excellent and meaningful music for its audiences. With such a small number of singers, you might be surprised at how the group can fill a room with sound. But rest assured, they do this by performing mostly a cappella singing (singing without musical instruments), although occasionally singers are accompanied by percussion or an acoustic—as in, not electric—instrument.

With less than a dozen singers, and little or no instrumental accompaniment, each singer must be on his “A game” at all times—perfectly in tune, rhythmically accurate, and matching the energy that each song requires. The members of Cantus accomplish this with a shared goal of musical excellence and a commitment to one another.

Cantus performs choral singing, where most often the goal is to create one sound, or a single “voice” that emerges from the group. That doesn’t mean everyone sings the same part, but rather, that the audience hears the ensemble rather than eight individual voices. Even when a soloist is featured, he’s supported by the other members as a unified force. From classical to folk to pop music, Cantus does it all.

The group was founded by four students at St. Olaf College in Minnesota in 1995. The group eventually grew in order to be able to perform the choral classic Ave Maria by Franz Biebl. It’s become one of their signature pieces.

You can listen to Cantus sing Ave Maria here:

But Cantus isn’t all “classical business.” One of its goals is to spread the joy of singing, whether that’s through traditional classical music, American folk standards, or modern compositions. And they don’t take themselves too seriously, either. Watch this parody of Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’s song “Thrift Shop,” which the group renames “Barbershop”—rap and all!

So What’s a Chamber Ensemble?

The mention of chamber music might bring to mind a small group of instruments, like a string quartet, and rightfully so. Chamber music is traditionally associated with a group of instruments where, rather than multiple instruments playing a part (like in an orchestra), each instrument carries a part by itself. And just like instrumental music in a choral chamber group, the group of singers typically sing an individual part, as opposed to a choir, where multiple voices per part are present.

Cantus is more than just a performing group, however, as they routinely share their love of music in concerts for adults and young people alike. The group is also heavily involved in educational outreach, providing guided performances that draw on repertoire from modern Grammy®-winning composer and choral conductor Eric Whitacre to international folk music.

In this performance and demonstration, Cantus takes their audience on a trip around the world while telling the story behind each of the songs. The program will include some of the following repertoire:

“There is a Meetin' Here Tonight” by Joe Gilbert and Eddie Brown

“Hotaru Koi” Japanese folk song arranged by Ro Ogura

“Lux Aurumque” by Eric Whitacre

“True Colors” by Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly

“As One Sky” by Paul John Rudoi

“Simple Gifts” American folk song arranged by Stephen Caracciolo

“Yonder Come Day” American spiritual arranged by Paul John Rudoi

In addition, Cantus will add a couple of Christmas tunes to the concert, as well as a Question and Answer session. Have your questions ready!

Who’s Who

The word “cantus” comes from the Latin word cantare for “a song or singing.” In the history of music, the term “cantus” refers to a kind of church singing called chant, where there is a single line of melody. It was later used to refer to the melody line (specifically called the “cantus firmus”) of a choral work in polyphonic style, where two or more independent lines of music occur at the same time, creating a “thick” musical texture. The definitions might seem like opposites—a single melody versus a complicated composition—but they’re a perfect juxtaposition for the breadth of musical abilities that Cantus features. Each singer is an accomplished and respected musician individually, but together they create music greater than the sum of their individual voices.

Cantus is one of the few full-time vocal ensembles in the country. The group proves that making music can be a day job by rehearsing, performing, and professionally instructing 46 weeks out of the year. Cantus performs with no conductor; instead, the members perform as a true chamber ensemble, each an integral part of the group’s vocal dynamic. From choosing songs to interpreting the music, to rehearsing, each singer leaves his fingerprints on the music they present.

The members of Cantus are: Jacob Christopher, tenor Zachary Colby, tenor Adam Fieldson, tenor Chris Foss, bass David Geist, baritone Matthew Goinz, baritone Samuel Green, bass Paul Scholtz, tenor

What Makes Cantus Different

Since there isn’t a conductor leading Cantus, one singer in the group is assigned the role of “producer” on each piece. He’s responsible for its interpretation, rehearsal schedule, and what you might call “quality control”—all the tiny parts of a piece of music that impact its effect. This can include tempo, rhythm, note tuning, and any one of the other pieces of the song’s musical pie. The producer doesn’t do this in isolation, though, he welcomes and counts on feedback from his fellow singers. This collaborative style is unique to the group—many other ensembles have a leader or conductor—and the group believes it allows them to be more flexible, try new things, and bring many different voices to the table.

Another unique quality of Cantus is that they seek out contemporary composers to write the works that they perform. Cantus frequently plans programs centered around a theme with a social message—one past theme focuses on the sacrifices of soldiers—and by commissioning new music related to social themes, Cantus opens up conversations that give their music an impact beyond the stage.

See how Cantus tackles modern issues in a recent program, Alone Together:

Check This Out…

Cantus is a group of male singers whose members make up each of the three major male “voicings,” a term that explains how high or low each singing part’s musical notes are in relationship to one another. Male singers are voiced as either tenors, baritones, or basses. In a larger chorus, all of one voicing might sing the same part; for example, often the tenors all sing the melody. But in a chamber group like Cantus, each singer has a unique part, which results in a full and vibrant sound.

Tenor voices are higher than most other male voices (the countertenor, not found in Cantus is voiced higher than tenor), falling somewhere between a female alto and a male baritone and bass.

A baritone is a male voice whose range falls between the tenor and bass voices. The name “baritone” comes from a Greek word meaning deep or heavy sounding.

Bass voices have the lowest range of any voice type. Bass voices often provide chordal and harmonic support to the vocal line, much like a low-pitched instrument such as a string bass or tuba.

Cantus performs without a conductor. When you watch them perform, what methods do the singers use to create one vocal sound? Look for eye contact and body movements, including how the group starts and stops vocal selections and how and when the singers breathe.

A cappella music is group or solo singing that has no instrumental accompaniment. When Cantus sings a cappella, how do the voices “fill in” the places where instruments might support the voices (hint, do you hear any long, held notes)? Compare Cantus’s a cappella rendition of Simple Gifts to the accompanied version by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. What are the similarities and differences between the performances? Cantus:

Think About This…

One of the most unique parts of Cantus is that, along with performing classics and folk music, the group commissions modern artists to write original music for them to sing. In doing this, they have a unique ability to perform songs that tackle important modern topics and issues, including the sacrifices of soldiers, stewardship of the planet, and connection in the age of technology. They call this making music about “shared human experiences.” What human experiences do you hear about in their music? Is it only newly written pieces that can make an impact in this way, or are there shared human experiences in the classics, too?

Part of the mission of Cantus is to spread the joy of singing. How does this come across in their performance? Can joy in an artistic form (like singing) be present even when the subject of a song is serious or upsetting? What do you think?

How do you compare the kind of group singing Cantus performs with the singing you’re familiar with? Is there simply a variance in the type of music or is there something more that makes Cantus different?

  Take Action: Share Your Voice

The mission of Cantus is to engage audiences in meaningful musical and human experiences, especially through collaboration—working together. Think of a way that you come together with others to give a voice to shared human experiences. It could be, like Cantus, through music, or perhaps you collaborate through dance, or visual art, or even serving others.

Take a picture or video of how you share your voice and post it to Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr, Snapchat, or any other platform. Make sure if other people are part of what inspires you that you have their permission to include them in your post. Then, tag five friends and ask them to share their inspiration. Use #shareyourvoice as your hashtag.
