Choose one of the following videos of a full-length concert: 1. Sting, Live at Durham Castle 2. Andrea Bocelli, Live in Concert 3. Above and Beyond Accoustic 4. A Tribute to Burt Bacharach at the White House 5. Pioneer Day Concert with the King’s Singers 6. Dvořák’s “New World” Symphony After watching the entire concert write a 3-5 page concert critique following the criteria below. Be sure to use accurate musical terms to describe the music as much as possible. CRITERIA: Your concert critique should be 3-5 pages long, double-spaced . It should contain five paragraphs that describe the following aspects of the recorded concert you viewed this semester: I. Who are the performers? Give the title of the concert and write something about the performers. Is it an orchestra? A choir? An ensemble? Solo artists? Why did you choose to view this particular performance? Tell as much as you know about the musicians that performed – are they professionals? Students? Teachers? How long have they been performing? Etc. II. Describe the music that was performed on the concert. Use the musical characteristics that we have been learning in class. What genre is the music (opera aria? Jazz song? Standard tune? Solo instrument piece? Symphony?) What style period was the music written in? What was the tempo , dynamics , texture , etc. Sometimes the music in a concert will be only one genre. Sometimes there will be several genres performed. Attach the program to your critique, and then refer to the titles in the program. For example: “Autumn Leaves” was performed by a small instrumental ensemble (guitar, bass, percussion). It is a standard contemporary tune. The tempo was a moderately slow ballad. It had a very mellow sound… III. Tell how well you think the performers interpreted the music that was on the concert. Were the singers in tune? Did the piano player play musically and rhythmically? Do you think the performers communicated the music as it was meant to be communicated by the composer? IV. Tell which pieces or part of the concert was most moving or enjoyable for you. If you didn’t enjoy the concert very much, tell why you didn’t enjoy it. What could have been better? Be as specific as you can when expressing your opinion of the performance – don’t just write generalities like “It was nice” or “it made me feel like dancing”. Tell why the music made you feel like dancing. Write about why you particularly enjoyed that part of the concert. V. Conclude your critique by summing up the performance and telling us if you would go to hear these performers again – or would invite your friends or family to hear this performance/performers. A rubric is available for this assignment and can be found under the Progress drop down menu under Rubrics . .

CONCERT CRITIQUE GUIDELINES Questions for a Concert What kinds of musical concerts are NOT acceptable for this paper? High school or other children's performances/recitals, outdoor festival performances, any type of pop, rock, rap, Latin, country, or reggae, for example, are not appropriate for this paper. If you're not sure about your choice, ask me. Print out and take with you so you can be thinking of the questions as you watch the show. 1. Program Notes - most performances have a printed program with printed notes. Read this before the performance begins and save it for reference when you write your paper. 2. Head your paper with your first and last name, the name of the show and where and when you saw it. 3. List the performers and/or the name of the group and the instruments included in the concert. List all the pieces that were played (see program notes for the concert), the name of the person who composed and/or arranged each piece, and the date each work was completed (if possible). Example: The Turtle Island String Quartet includes Joe Bloe, first violin; Sarah Marah, second violin; Topsy Turvy, viola; S. Popping, cello. Their program: Still so Cheerful by Sarah Marah, composed in 2001 Getting up Late by S. Popping, composed in 1998 Saturday Night by Berry Berry, composed in 2004 What to Write About: 1. Below are some things you can write about, but the most important is the MUSIC. You don't have to write about every piece on the program. Do write about how the sounds affected you, which voices, selections, or instruments touched you most, what you learned of interest about the composer(s), the performing group, and the compositions. 2. Ambience - Every gathering of people has a feeling tone, a mood: This is the ambience. Notice the people as they come in, find their seats, see what kinds of clothes they are wearing. Look around the theatre; notice the lighting in the room, the stage area. If you have some particular feeling about how you fit in, how you feel being a part of it you might make a comment in your paper. 3. You will understand and appreciate a concert more, and write about it best if you do a little research. It's easy to research on the Internet. Type in the name of the group and a list of web sites will pop up. The same is true for many composers. If the pieces were written in another century find out what you can about the type of composition, something about the composer. 4. Music is the most illusive art form. Like the dance, music happens in real-time: It's gone as soon as you hear it, and impressions are difficult to recall. Program notes give you information that is helpful when you think back on a performance. Program notes give you information about the composers, the music, and in voice concerts you may have translations into English of the words in a song. 5. Each composer had a concept, an idea, and chose specific instruments or voices (types of singers) because of the sounds they make. Listen to ho.

Functionalism: Prostitution creates jobs for law enforcement. It gives otherwise unemployable women a way to support themselves. Conflict: Prostitutes are typically females controlled by male pimps. Males have power over the prostitutes, their money, and their well-being. Interactionist: How do you know who is a prostitute? Prostitutes can be identified by their appearance In some cases. The clothes they wear, their make-up and hair, and the way they posture themselves can be signs of their status. Feminist: Women are exploited by their pimps. They turn over their money and are subject to the pimp. BUT, another feminist version might go like this -- Prostitution gives women the freedom to control their own bodies. It can be a means to independence (if there is no male pimp involved). Okay. Now it's your turn. Pick one phenomena from the list and one perspective to apply. I expect more than a sentence of two from you! PreviousNext Choose one of the following social phenomena and use one of the sociological perspectives to describe it.
