Forte or Forté may refer to:
In music, dynamics are instructions in musical notation to the performer about hearing the loudness of a note or phrase. More generally, dynamics may also include other aspects of the execution of a given piece.
The two basic dynamic indications in music are:
More subtle degrees of loudness or softness are indicated by:
Beyond f and p, there are also
And so on.
Some pieces contain dynamic designations with more than three f's or p's. In Holst's The Planets, ffff occurs twice in Mars and once in Uranus often punctuated by organ and fff occurs several times throughout the work. It also appears in Heitor Villa-Lobos' Bachianas Brasileiras No. 4 (Prelude), and in Liszt's Fantasy and Fugue on the chorale "Ad nos, ad salutarem undam". The Norman Dello Joio Suite for Piano ends with a crescendo to a ffff, and Tchaikovsky indicated a bassoon solo pppppp in his Pathétique Symphony and ffff in passages of his 1812 Overture and the 2nd movement of his Fifth Symphony.
Forte (/ˈfɒr.teɪ/ FOR-tay; styled as FORTE) is a classical crossover–operatic pop trio comprising tenors Josh Page, Sean Panikkar and Hana Ryu. Forte was created specifically for season eight of America's Got Talent. Despite having met in person just two days before their first performance together, and despite a personnel change ahead of their second, Forte advanced to the final round, finishing in fourth place. Following their elimination, the men accepted a recording contract offered by representatives of Columbia Records, who were waiting for them in the hallway offstage.
Forte has since performed at Carnegie Hall and the White House, and has been featured at numerous charity galas. The group was the first finalist from season eight to headline a show in Las Vegas. Their eponymous debut album peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Classical Albums chart. Their sophomore album, The Future Classics, includes their take on popular songs and music composed for Game of Thrones.
Ernie may refer to:
This page is for minor and supplementary characters in the Power Rangers universe, appearing in the television series Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, its sequels and related media. Characters listed here are either incidental characters, or characters that aid the Power Rangers team but are not Rangers themselves.
Characters are listed alphabetically according to the series (or movie) in which they first appeared.
Ernie, played by Richard Genelle, was a supporting character from the show's early days all the way through Power Rangers Zeo. He was the owner of the Angel Grove Youth Center and also owned a juice bar and has hosted various events. Ernie was around to lend a helping hand or advice to various characters, but was often annoyed with Bulk and Skull's antics and a few times before he had thrown the duo out. Until season 2's Rocky just wants to have fun, Bulk and Skull believed Ernie may be a member of the Power Rangers since he had a day off every time Rita attacked Angel Grove; they hadn't been paying attention well, since Ernie usually was in the Youth Center whenever a tremor was caused by an attack.
Ernie is a Muppet character on the long-running PBS children's television show, Sesame Street. He and his roommate Bert form the comic duo Bert and Ernie, one of the program's centerpieces, with Ernie acting the role of the naïve troublemaker and Bert the world-weary foil.
Ernie has a distinctive, chuckling laugh (a trait he shares with his baby cousin Ernestine). His appearance and clothing contrast noticeably with Bert, as he is the shorter and stouter of the pair, wears a shirt with horizontal stripes as opposed to Bert's vertical ones, and has a head that is wider than it is high. In addition, Ernie has no visible eyebrows, while Bert displays a unibrow.
Ernie is well known for his fondness for baths with his Rubber Duckie, and for trying to learn to play the saxophone. Ernie is also known for keeping Bert awake at night, for reasons such as wanting to play the drums, wanting to count something (like sheep), to observe something like a blackout, or even because he is waiting for his upstairs neighbor to drop his shoes.
