Concert Report
Must watch a concert event via a livestream/recording online, submit a 750-word written report on the experience.
To be included in the report:
What is the performance?
• Who performed, what venue, date and time of the performance, type of music
• What led you personally to this concert?
Answer: I am interested in Rap music and I have heard about the artist Big Boi and how talented he is. As I was searching for a concert that would interest me I came across him and was very curious to hear him play, especially in this format.
Detailed statements about the program, as appropriate:
• Who led or conducted, what pieces were performed, who were the principal performers, how well did they perform?
How did a streaming/recorded
performance affect your enjoyment/consumption of the show?
Answer: I really enjoyed listening to a concert in this format because I was able to play it as loud as I wanted and I was able to replay parts that were enjoyable to me as well as listen to the concert more than once. In addition, I have added it to my playlist of music I listen to daily. I had not thought of listening to a recorded concert, but would look for others in the future. There are many Tiny Desk Concerts to choose from and they are very engaging.
Describe in detail one primary substantial piece, or a few contrasting shorter pieces on the program: ( I included some information for this answer, please expand)
Answer: I have heard the song So Fresh and So Clean before, but it was interesting and enjoyable to listen to it in person and in a small environment that they performed. It makes it real and you can actually hear the instruments and vocals. I really enjoyed the trumpets and thought the record scratching was really cool.
• Use the vocabulary you learned in Unit 1 and are continuing to develop to write about the music in an informed way, ex. write about texture, timbre, tempos, etc., and how
these elements define/contribute to the expression of the music ( text book will be included in the files)
Your overall opinion of the concert:
Would you watch the concert again? Yes
Would you be interested in seeing this artist in person? Yes
Do you recommend this group or performance to others? Yes
Include a written review in prose, like a magazine, newspaper, or online review
Musician and writer Steve Ashby put together a useful guide for writing concert reports of different genres (classical, jazz, pop, etc.). I encourage you to read through this. ( this is included in the files)
Please ensure this is written in your own words, properly cite work from others that is used in your paper. Use correct grammar and spelling and sentence structure.
