Answer:

Spirits

Explanation:

African masks should be seen as part of a ceremonial costume. They are used in religious and social events to represent the spirits of ancestors or to control the good and evil forces in the community. They come to life, possessed by their spirit in the performance of the dance, and are enhanced by the music, color, and atmosphere of the occasion. Some combine human and animal features to unite man with his natural environment. This bond with nature and the spirit world is of great importance to many tribal cultures and through the ages, masks have always been used to express this relationship.

By Bach I'm pretty sure you are referring to Johann Sebastian Bach..

I'd say that the entire 20th century was filled with composers inspired by Bach, but I'd hesitate to call any one of them a "modern day Bach", because the conception of music had changed so much in the interim that the kind of craft-focused genre writing that Bach did was considered anathema to art. Every work had to be made anew. Hindemith seems to be a notable exception, and he is sometimes criticized for writing "generically", because it seems out of step with the practice of his time.

Time Signatures and Counting I

Answer:

I think if you Take the 2/4 time signature for example - with the 2 on the top of the time signature you know there are 2 beats for one measure, and this leaves you with a fraction of 1/4—a quarter, the note-length the time signature is indicating to you then is a quarter note.

Time signature is the pattern of beats and how many beats you get per measure and Tempo is the speed of those measures. So time signature tells you whether you're counting 1-2-3-4 or 1-2-3.
