Concert Review Essay

I enjoyed a Dame Myra Hess Concert at the Chicago Cultural Center, held in the Preston Bradley Hall. It featured Brannon Cho and Victor Asuncion as the performers on November 16th in the afternoon. It showed a variety of compositions that kept me mesmerized throughout the show. The instruments they played were the cello and the piano. I chose this concert because it was convenient, location wise and it fitted well into my schedule. The only other concert I can relate it to was at church, it was a

LSU Symphonic Woodwinds On February 21st, I attended LSU Symphonic Woodwinds at Louisiana State University with my mom.I felt very serious walking into the venue, as if I needed to be very prim and proper. This was a new experience for me and I was not expecting it to be as exhausting. I felt very bored most of the time, but the performers were very good. The LSU Symphonic Woodwinds was a very new experience, and it had a few different elements that can be upgraded. The design and cosmetics of the

Last week, I went to an African-Caribbean Concert located in Lee Hall Auditorium at Florida A&M University. There were so many great performances starting with little girls dancing to African music and ending with people dancing to the beat of drums. There was a total of ten performances at the concert and I liked that there was a variety of ways to showcase the talents. Instead of only dancing, there was poetry, and singing. Out of the ten performances, there were three that really had my attention

The concert that I attended was by John Mayer on March 31st, 2017 in Albany, NY. He performs both as a soloist and as a group with backup vocals and guitars. The music that he plays during the concert can be described as pop or blues. Some of songs that he played included You’re Going to Live Forever, Belief, and Slow Dancing in a Burning Room. Overall, the John Mayer concert was very well performed with no big mistakes. One of the things that he did best was getting the audience involved in the

The music performance I went to see was the University Symphony Halloween concert held in Comstock Concert Hall. This was the first time I had been to a symphony production and was eager to see what was in store. The show started off with each part of the orchestra introducing themselves in different costumes and skits. For example, the cellos were dressed in camouflage and the tubas were dressed as sheep. After a long introduction the lights dimmed and the show started. Attending this performance

Yesterday, I watched the concert band rehearse for their district concert which took place later that night. As a whole, the music that they selected was well suited to the capability of the musicians. However, the Liberty Bell March was executed much better in comparison to Star Wars: The March, as the former appeared to be slightly easier for the band to play. For instance, the Liberty Bell March by Sousa was the first piece that the musicians performed. This song from the late romantic period

month before the concert, I got Metallica tickets for my birthday. I got the tickets and about thirty pictures of me through the whole level 6 season. I loved Metallica, I would blare it through my Bluetooth speaker as loud as I could. Everytime I listened to the band, I would sing along or head bang. The only thing was that I had to wait a whole month before I could attend the concert. A month passed, which seemed more like a year, on June 18, I got to attend my first metal concert. I had already

beloved youth of doing on a daily basis: not listening. I was tricked into loving rap music by participating in my favorite activity – one that steals my time and money – going to concerts. There, I witnessed the power of the rap narrative and its power when given to a live, reactive audience. I went to my first concert when I was 16. I had begged my mom to take me to Sarah McLachlan, a chanteuse of glorious pop melodies and soprano range. The show itself was powerful and enchanting, and I had

Recently I attended the 2016 ILMEA District 8 Music Festival. While I got the opportunity to create and perform music with other District Senior Choir, I also got to hear the District Senior Band give a lovely concert as well. The conductor was James Lambrecht. Before and in between when the band was playing he would explain how proud he was of the group and then he told everyone a little about the pieces. Each piece was a contemporary band arrangement. The band played four pieces: Play! by Carl
