Zombie Intruders Concert Report

Decent Essays
Zombie Intruders was one of my favorite songs from this concert. I think that it allowed me to focus more on dynamics which improved my sound quality. As a musician, I think this song was very enjoyable with all of the different sound effects incorporated. I liked how different this song was. Usually when common people who do not play any instruments think of orchestra, they think of boring classical music. This piece helped to show that string music is not boring and has little boundarie. This piece shows a quiet and wild side to string music and I thought it was very entertaining. All songs come with their own challenges and this song had some that stood out. The biggest challenge I had with this piece was not playing the right notes

    This week, I have been focusing on the new song that my mentor gave me. This song is called Old Joe Clark. He told me that the song was written in the late 1800’s during the time that slaves were around. He said the name of the song has a interesting history. Mr. Snow told me that this slave named Joe was forced to play music for the master and his friends to dance to.…

    I think that this song was very different from the songs we listened to in class, which was kind of neat. There wasn’t a clear rhythm of sorts to this song. I felt like a lot of different things were going on and each instrument had their own parts going on. However, it all flowed together really well. The saxophone(s) and piano played most of the choruses, and each had their own little part of a solo.…

    Very few famous performers nowadays can integrate showmanship with their music. In the 70’s a musical group by the name of Parliament took the music world by storm with their out of this world appearance and their own rendition of Funk music. Parliament was one of the key pieces in the development of funk music and modern music as well. They created what we know as P-Funk today that was a key element of the foundation of Hip-Hop. For my concert report I analyzed Parliament’s 1976…

    Every day, I try to listen to a new piece of music. Whether it be a string group, unaccompanied choir, or even a percussion consort, I believe that by doing this, so much can be learned from just listening. About the mid-month of July, I came across this piece of music. I thought it was extremely fun and quirky at the same time! I had continued to listen to it, read some background information on the piece, and do a small amount of study on the work.…

    On April 21st, 2017, I went to the concert hold by Nocturne- a two years old club in Denver, and the Keith Oxman Quartet did a remarkable concert that night.

    This does not possess a catchy melody, but one that has a jagged contour and great complexity, skipping up and down the piano. The voices of the characters, likewise, are required to produce many different tones in order to give more complexity to this melody. I believe the intent of this piece was communicated very well, giving the readers a story of true love and how powerful it can be. Even though the audience knew the ending of this story, they were still able to feel through the performance how much the characters had loved each other…

    I will be reviewing the performance of Brianna Blount and Francisco Zabala. On February 20th, they had their junior flute recital in the Bower school of music’s recital hall. They performed a variety of repertoire from the 1600’s to the present both solo and in an ensemble. They played pieces with multiple movements such as Concerto IV by J.B. de Boismortier and pieces without multiple movements such as Canzone by Samuel Barber. I enjoyed the variety of the concert the most because there were multiple performers and styles of music from many genres to keep the audience engaged.…

    The Fall Concert was held at Our Lady Queen of Angles Church, Newport Beach, and many different choirs had the amazing opportunity to show the audience what they have learned and how well they can sing. Unfortunately, I was not able to attend the first concert, which made me somber because I missed the first performance with my lovely choir, Vivace. Luckily, I heard many positive remarks about how fun it was and how well they sing, which makes me excited to sing in the Madrigal Feast and other concerts.…

    The instruments are all moving quickly and playing different and conflicting parts all over one another, which creates an interesting and energetic sound. I liked having this energetic and lively section towards the end of the piece. It created anticipation and excitement while listening, while also revisiting some of the initial musical sections from the first movement. I thought that the revisiting of initial musical pieces tied the whole thing together, by showing the connection through the first and last movements. I thought it was interesting that this movement ended with a downbeat, as it initially started with an…

    The performance attempted to give a dark but loving story which will keep you amused throughout the whole concert. I learned a lot about the choreographers in the performance by the way they presented themselves. Presentation means a lot and the way they proceeded was professional. The dance was successful to a point where everyone in the audience was thrilled and amazed from the performance. Practice makes perfect and the only way to improve is to try and do it over and over…
