Ted Talk Response #5 Ethel

I watched Ethel perform a piece of music with several other people called "Blue Room". It was much different than any other Ted Talk i've ever watched. I ended the video feeling sad, because that's the emotion that the video conveyed. It was a very short video, and i was shocked that there were no words or explanations of the music. I liked it because i could tell that the point was to portray emotion through music instead of words, because i have never seen anything like it. At first i was confused at how short and wordless this Ted Talk was, but as the video went on i began interested in trying to find the meaning of this song. I think it showed sorrow and pain, but i liked how fully open to interpritation it was. Without words it is much easier to form your own opinion, and not having words helped too. I didn't like this talk as much as some of the others i've seen, but i found it very interesting.
