GREAT BRITAIN
Great Britain is situated on a large group of islands lying to the west of Europe. It consists of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. Long ago the greater part of the country was covered with forests. Now there are practically no forests there, but there are many leafy trees, that give beauty to the countryside. Some parts of England are really beautiful. Many picturesque lakes have woody grassy shores. The rivers in the country are not long. Many of them are joined by canals so that it is quite possible to travel by water from one end of the country to the other.

The climate of the country is milder than that of the central regions of our country. The winters are warmer and summers are colder. Even in the most northern parts of Scotland snow never lies very long on the ground in winter. In the south of England the rivers never freeze. The summers are not very hot, there is often much rain.
One of the chief reasons for such a mild climate is a stream of warm water called the Gulf Stream.
Great Britain is a densely populated country. London is the capital of Great Britain. Its population with the suburbs is about ten million people.
There are many places in London which are connected with historical events. Such as Trafalgar square with the monument to Nelson, the st. Paul`s cathedral, Westminster Abbey, the Tower and many others.
Great Britain is an industrial country. There are a lot of factories and mines there. Sheffield is a centre of steel industry. In Manchester there are many textile factories, Liverpool is one of the big ports on the west coast of Scotland. Glasgow is a large sea-port and a shipbuilding centre.
Oxford, Cambridge and Edinburgh are University towns.
Great Britain is a monarchy, but the power of the Queen is not absolute but constitutional. Her power is limited by parliament. There are three main political parties at present dates in Great Britain. They are Labour, Conservative and Liberal.

MY PROFEESSION CHOREOGRAPHER
My future profession is a choreographer. I liked to dance from my childhood.
But only at the Institute of Arts and Culture I understood what choreography means.
Choreography is the art of creating and arranging dances. The ballet master or the choreographer is the arranger of dance. Dance is the movement of the body in a rhythmic way, usually to music, for the purpose of expressing the idea or emotion, releasing energy
Or simply taking delight in the movement itself. One of the most basic motives of dance is the expression of emotions. People and even higher animals often dance as way of releasing powerful feelings, such as a sudden access of high spirits, joy or anger.
As all the dancers I need grace, rhythm and strength. So I have to go to class every day. When we speak of a dancing class we mean a very large room with large windows. There is a bar along the walls of the room and large mirrors.
Ideally a choreographer must be a competent dancer and a good musician. The great choreographers have a conductors knowledge of music. Balanchine for example had passed the conservatoire.

MY PROFESSION MUSICIAN
My future profession is a musician. Musician is a person, skilled in art or practice of interpreting, performing or composing music.
The profession of a musician implies composing music, vocal and instrumental performing it.
There are musicians who perform classical or modern, serious or light music.
Vocalists or singers perform folk songs, vocal pieces for two, three or more singers. There are vocal ensembles (duets, trios, quartets) and choirs.
Choral singing is an excellent practice for a singer. He will gain confidence from hearing voices around him. Choral music sung by voices alone without accompaniment is called a cappella.
Vocalists can perform cantatas (musical work for soloists singers, sometimes for a chorus with orchestra), oratorios (which reminds operas but are performed in concerts without stage action and theatrical costumes), operettas and operas.
Instrumental genres have been developed later than vocal ones. They are chamber music and symphony music. Musicians performing chamber works are not large in number.
The full complement of the symphony orchestra of today usually numbers from about 80 to100 players.
Some talented musicians give solo recitals.
The profession of a musician is of great importance because he interprets the ideas of a composer to listeners. Only talented performers never mechanically repeat notes but having perfect artistic feeling, style, temperament and taste can understand the mysterious sense of a musical text and can interpret its contents to the listeners. Its the main quality of a profession performer of music.
