Gustav Klimt
Gustav Klimt was a subject of study for my American School not too long ago. Gustav Klimt was born in Austria to a poor, immigrant gold engraver. He began his career paintings murals and ceilings in buildings. His decorations and ornamentations grew in popularity and he remained in steady work. He would continue to develop his style of ornamentation throughout his life and it would become increasingly organic looking, in the Art Nouveau style. He became increasingly popular. My favorite work of his is the famous “The Kiss”. Maybe you know it…

New Music For September Pt.4
Hello!
Well, for my music recommendation this month, I'm going to go a little different again, but still keep it in Canada. Way way up North in Canada there is a territory called Nunavut. It's often very cold and can get very dark, but it's also incredibly beautiful, and one of the places I think I would like to work and live if I had the chance. There is a band there that is quickly becoming famous in Canada called “The Jerry Cans” that sing both in English and Inuktitut, which is the language of the Inuit people who live in that area of Canada. The song I would like to show you today is called “Ukiuq”, which translates to “winter” in English. This also also shows a very famous and old style of singing called Throat Singing, where the singer will make two or three noises from their neck and throat at the same time.
Let me know what you think of this style of music, and any other thoughts you have about Canadian music!
