PART 1
I think I would put the word 'silience' before the school mission statements because it clearly explains deeper understanding of the statements as it draws the listeners, and readers attention. Futhermore, by putting silence right before a highly successful, spirited, socially responsible global citizen works because it creates a void as it is introducing the school's goal, therefore the statement would make the listener, reader stay focused with it. The statement creates tension to the audience because it makes them curious, and ask questions about where the school statement would lead their children to and what will happen next. As the parents want their children to have good education they would be more focused on the school's mission goals, therefore I think putting silence before the school mission statement will create a void.
PART2
The composers tend to create tension in a variety of ways, and one way is creating a silence during a piece because it makes the listener wait for the important part. Similarly, the composer also uses pause and release by going back to the normal state of the piece. These kind of tension makes the listener curious and confused on why there's a silence. Moreover, by creating a tension could maybe change the listeners effect on the music, for example, at first the listener might think the music is boring but as the composer makes tension he/she might change her thoughts about it. Therefore, creating tension could create a void as the audience start making questions and hangs on to the music.
