Is there any apparent reason for those changes?b) Timbre: Where do instruments take over the melody or a solo passage?c) Pitch: What is the general pitch level of the piece? Are there wide variations in pitch level?Although there are sections that feature one instrument over others, whether you think this is a piece for a solo performer or for an ensembleA list of the characteristics of the musical style closest to the one this piece exemplifies. (Hint: Look at the last lecture in the first section of the course)Whether you think this piece serves (or could serve) a specific purpose.Whether or not it has any specific connotation(s) for you.Submission InstructionsClick “Add Submission”Use the text entry box and/or upload a file to add your assignment.Click “Save Changes.” You will have the option to “Edit Submission” after you have saved your changes to continue working on your assignment.Click “Submit Assignment” when you are ready to submit your assignment to your instructor.Click “Continue” at the prompt “Are you sure you want to submit your work for grading?

Make sure to provide citations/references for your answers in APA format.CASE STUDY: Caregiver Role Strain: Ms. Sandra A. Sandra, a 47-year-old divorced woman, received a diagnosis of stage 3 ovarian cancer 4 years ago, for which she had a total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo- oophorectomy, omentectomy, lymphadenectomy, and tumor debulking followed by chemotherapy, consisting of cisplatin (Platinol), paclitaxel (Taxol), and doxorubicin (Adriamycin). She did well for 2 years and then moved back to her hometown near her family and underwent three more rounds of secondline chemotherapy. She accepted a less stressful job, bought a house, renewed old friendships, and became more involved with her two sisters and their families. Sandra developed several complications, including metastasis to the lungs. Then she could no longer work, drive, or care for herself. She had been told by her oncologist that there was nothing else that could be done and that she should consider entering a hospice. She met her attorney and prepared an advance directive and completed her will. She decided to have hospice care at home and, with the help of her family, set up her first floor as a living and sleeping area. She was cared for by family members around the clock for approximately 3 days. Sandra observed that she was tiring everyone out so much that they could not really enjoy each others company. At this time, she contacted the Visiting Nurse Association (VNA) to seek assistance. Her plan was to try to enjoy her family and friends visits. After assessment, the VNA nurse prioritized her problems to include fatigue and caregiver role strain. Other potential problem areas that may need to be incorporated into the care plan include anticipatory grieving and impaired comfort.Reflective Questions1. What are some of the stresses on Sandras middle-aged sisters and their families?2. What resources are available to manage these stresses and support the sisters while caring for their dying sister Sandra?3. Describe Sandras feelings about dependency and loss of autonomy because she is unable to do her own activities of daily living any longe
In this course project assignment, you are presented with clinical notes for two different patients. These progress notes have been recorded as SOAP notes.
