The reason that I chose for this particular title to represent all that my blog stands for is because of the many denotations of the word "Tone". Tone is not only my nickname and short for Antonio, but it is also a musical term that is defined as any sound with reference to it's quality, pitch, strength and source, as well as a literary term defined as a particular quality, way of sounding, modulation, or intonation of the voice as expressive of some meaning, feeling and spirit. These additional meaning relate to my blog in the sense that both relate to one's own interpretation of life and our emotional connection to the environment around us. A major factor of music is the skill of improvisation. This relies heavily not only the talent of the performer, but their inner passion and emotions. I have been a jazz musician for about 8 years of my life and have experienced first-hand the amazing privilege of speaking from your heart through the notes of your instrument. Also, the tone of a character or their persona portrays their feelings and emotional connection towards a specific topic. The perspective of a person can be interpreted much more accurately through not so much their words, but the manner in which they say the words. All of these components combine to create a major part of who I am as a person, which is a charismatic, out outgoing extrovert and this will most likely be reflected in my blog posts and writing. My blog will be a window into both who I am and what I believe about the world around us.
