Upon researching topics the idea of the Industrial Revolution came into mind as I\u2019ve always been more of a city buff. Yet at the same time I enjoy nature and it\u2019s gifts such as horses, dogs, cats, trees, and flowers. How can someone want to both be in an urban center yet have nature all around them at the same time? Although I\u2019ve never been or lived in London I have lived in New York and often would find myself strolling in Central Park, appreciating flower stands, or watching birds and squirrels make homes in the trees. Wondering why people are drawn to the nostalgia of living more among nature it brought me to my audio choice being a part of Beethoven\u2019s 6th Symphony, specially the pastoral suite pt. III. The theme of the pastoral contrasting with London a portrait of Industrial Era London may seem strange at first. However, when you look more closely at the painting you see elements of nature all through the cityscape such as the roads still being open dirts, trees growing along the buildings, and storefronts painted with earthy colors. It makes me feel that people even in large cities still feel a sense of nostalgia for when humans were more immersed in nature and are still trying to recreate it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
