First, was Norm Lewis, a baritone singer, the mood is very mellow and made me feel powerful and confident. The tempo is moderate and the dynamic was moderately loud.

I thought it was going to long and I was going to get bored of the content. I actually really liked it and it wasn’t as bad as I thought I was going to be. Being a virtual concert viewer was a little different because it just made me want to be at the concert live. I will definitely view more concerts virtually because I had fun. I loved the concert I selected because all the performers had different genres which allowed me to hear a little bit of everything. I enjoyed all the performances and all the performers had amazing voices. Sara Bareilles and Alison Krauss were my favorite performers. They have voices like angels and when they sang it gave me goosebumps and I wanted to just sing along, but I sang in my head because I can not sing. I liked all of the performers except for O Tu Palermo from Vespri because I couldn’t understand what he was saying because it was in a different

    This song has a wide dynamic range due to the “extremely soft passages as well as extremely loud passages” (Elements of Music). The rhythm patterns change throughout this piece. It begins to slow then changes to a faster pace. Along with changing rhythmic patterns there is a change in melody. The song changes from low to high pitches.…

    I went to see ‘Elf the Musical Jr.’ on Thursday, December 1, 2016. The tickets were $15 For decent seats and in my opinion, the show plus the seats that we had were not at all worth the $15, that we spent. This musical is not a show that I would recommend to anyone, at anytime. It was that bad. But, to help you understand in my own opinion as to why ‘Elf the Musical Jr.’ was so bad, let me give you some feedback and get into a little more detail in the next few paragraphs.…

    For my own virtual jazz band, I wanted to try and pick jazz musicians who could mend well with a dance or a swing band. Max Roach on drums, Charles Mingus on bass, Benny Goodman on clarinet, Lester Young on tenor sax, Cannonball Adderly on alto sax, Joe “Tricky Sam” Nanton on trombone, Dizzy Gillespie on trumpet, Ella Fitzgerald and Cab Calloway as singers, and Duke Ellington on piano and as the bandleader. The group would have the style of early 20th century dance bands and do a live performance in front of an audience, possibly with a dance floor. The style of the band, as a whole, would take after a lot of Duke Ellingtons’ early big bands.…

    For my concert critique, I went to Jason Terry’s Doctoral Piano Recital on Tuesday, December 1st at the School of Music in room 206. Because Terry was able to pick the pieces he played, he picked a range of different pieces to emphasize his wide range of talent. He included older and modern pieces including Bach, Godowsky, Balakirev, Zorn, and Liszt. The first piece he played was “Prelude & Fugue, BWV 872” composed by Bach. I was a little unsure about the nature and form of this piece because it was unlike some of the more structured pieces we listen to in class.…

    In Richard WIlbur’s “The Juggler”, the poem describes a seemingly mesmerizing performance by a juggler. The narrator, who appears to be among the audience uses poetic elements such as imagery, figurative language, and tone to reveal his fascination and inspiration evoked by the juggler’s performance. Imagery was proven to be one of the most prominent poetic elements within the poem, emphasizing its importance in the revelation of the speaker’s change. At the beginning of the poem, in stanzas one and two, the imagery was much different from the rest of the poem. The imagery appeared to be much weaker, and did not excite the reader as much as it had later in the poem.…

    Concert Report Two The concert performance given live that I have attended on Thursday April 20th, 2017 was an organ licentiate recital by Ian Guenette. It was held at the Redpath Hall, a building located on McTavish street. The Redpath Hall was first dedicated for a library building, but is now taken charge by the Schulich School of Music. The Hall is very charming with its high selling that contains thick dark brown carved wodden beams that covers the intire ceiling and gives warmth to the room.…

    Soon the chorus comes in seeming as though they are muttering the words. They continue to sing the dynamics changing after every phrase is sung. The variety of the changing dynamics continues throughout this first piece, becoming louder and quieter. The tempo and rhythm of the piece was very unified in this piece before any of the soloist began to sing their part. Throughout the performance of the soloists in this piece, the rhythm, tempo, harmony and volume changed drastically multiple times whenever the “idea” ended.…

    In conclusion, I thought the overall show was amazing and beautiful even though it was meant to be sad. My experience was rewarding because I got to hear a new form of music but I got to learn about a piece of Greek mythology that I didn’t know about. I would recommend this to anyone even though it appealed more to people who appreciate the history of the Greeks and classical music. It’s a nice change of music from the type that is created…

    It was very exciting to see these choirs sing with such passion. I also really liked listening to instruments live. I would rather listen to a pipe organ being played live than on a CD too. In my opinion the pipe organ sounds a lot better when it is played live too. This concert allowed me to hear new instruments live, which was a tremendously amazing experience.…
