Band

Part 1
The International School of Kuala Lumpur provides an exceptional education that challenges each student to develope the attitudes, skills, knowledge and understanding to become a (SILENCE) highly sucessful, spirited, socially responsible global citizen.

I think that inserting the silence in that location would cause tension because it comes right before the answer to the question of what our true goal it. There is also an added stress because the silence is placed right before we tell you what your child would become, parents could be thinking 'What will they turn my children into? A criminal drug-lord?!' When it has something to do with their children, the parents pay much more attention, and therefor they will ask more questions, building the tension.

Part 2
A composer could create tension in their music by creating a clash of melody, where two groups play things that are in a different key signature than each other. That tension is created by half steps between two notes played together. When that sound is produced, people begin to ask why we had done that, and other such questions, drawing the audiences attention.
