I-Pick a concert from either group

you write your paper.

II-Your Main Goal:

1- Using the musical parameters and vocabulary we have learned, describe the

entire concert and each piece played.

2- Then concentrate on your favorite piece and describe it in great detail.

3- Try to note as many parameters as you can.

4- I want to hear your reactions, so it is okay to assume the role of a concert

reviewer or critic.

5- You may be positive or negative in your reviews, however, be prepared to

back up what you say in musical terms as well as emotional reactions.

6- Do not provide “one word” responses, please compose a paper.

7- You may relate the pieces played at this event to other appropriate works of

art, stories, history, literature, current events, or even music played in class.
