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.

Indie pop originated from British post-punk in the late 1970s. It combines elements of rock such as stripped-down instrumentation with catchy melodies and song structures from pop music. Indie pop lyrics often deal with themes of love and heartbreak but can cover any subject matter. Musically, indie pop features prominent guitar or drum beats alongside clear choruses and catchy melodies. Indie pop bands aim to cultivate a distinctive, retro style that sets them apart from mainstream pop artists. The target audience for indie pop typically includes 16-24 year olds, especially students interested in unique styles of dress, media, and independent culture.

This music video for Emeli Sande's song "Heaven" uses contrasts in media language to represent the conflict between temptation and redemption expressed in the lyrics. Scenes of social realism depicting the negative consequences of temptation are juxtaposed with ethereal scenes signifying transcendence and the possibility of redemption. The video represents a diverse range of people and celebrates street life while also conveying the message that giving in to temptation can have sad consequences. It uses techniques like performance, narrative, gritty imagery, and uplifting music and lighting to communicate these themes.
The document summarizes the responses from a focus group of teenagers to questions about their music preferences, hobbies, and thoughts on various aspects of life.

Games are a great way to make music learning a fun process. These games help you understand the basic concepts of music and build on them. Games encourage the repetition process of notes, rhythms, and terms.
Music and Personality
Research has found connections between musical preferences and personality traits, with extraverts more likely to prefer upbeat and energetic music while neurotics prefer more mellow music. Certain genres like rap and country were also linked to openness to new experiences and conscientiousness respectively. Musical taste can provide insights into people's characteristic patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving.

decisions (there are example pitches at the bottom of the article), as well
as any additional research into the process that you would like to utilize.
Write a 500-character maximum pitch for your artist.
In this song about hope, determination, and love, Eddie Tangel shows his vulnerability,
emotions, and soul all while giving the listener a catchy melody and a “sing-along”
chorus that can have you humming along with it by the second half of the very first
chorus. “Hold On” is a song that can pertain to almost any major life-changing event,
reminding us to just hold on and stay true to ourselves.
Infusing soul and pop, singer/songwriter Eddie Tangel brings happiness and heartfelt
feelings to life and shares his emotions with those around him. With the ups-and-downs
and victories/defeats that came from being raised in a family of 8 with separated
parents, Eddie’s music is full of hope, determination, and love. After years of playing
small local venues, Eddie Tangel decided to record his original music. His first single,
“Hold On” reminds us to simply hold on and stay true to ourselves.
7. Primary Platforms
Identify at least 3 online platforms (examples: Instagram, Twitch,
SoundCloud) that you feel will be crucial to the success of your artist
5. based on their music, personality, strengths, fan habits, and the success
of similar artists.
List the 3 platforms you have chosen below and prove a minimum 2-
sentence description for each regarding why you feel that platform is
important and why your artist could thrive there.
Pandora
- With the Pandora radio stations, “Hold On” could be a track used on any of
the number of acoustic/coffeehouse/easy listening stations. With many
businesses and individuals relying on Pandora to supply them with music
throughout their days, Eddie Tangel’s song would have multiple opportunities to
be heard/liked/followed by new fans across the world.
Spotify
- In a similar function, Spotify’s analytics could place Tangel’s “Hold On” with
music of a similar genre or sound. On this particular platform though, the
listeners would actually be able to like the song, follow Eddie Tangel on the
platform, and follow him throughout his entire musical journey as each song
comes out, whether individually or on a full-length album.
Tik Tok
- The first thing I have to say about Tik Tok is that they revealed exactly how to
use their algorithm to your benefit. Knowing this will allow you to post a Tik Tok
(short video on the platform) at the appropriate time with the appropriate settings,
so that your video is seen by as many people as possible (Tik Tok, 2020).
Becoming “Tik Tok famous” is very beneficial for outreach, but he will need
something different to really put him above the rest. Although being TikTok
famous might not be on his radar, this platform will be good to use as a portfolio
of cover songs, showcasing his skills and range as an artist.

8. Provide at least two pictures of ideal members of the artist’s target audience.
Remember to consider the demographic and psychographic information you listed above
when choosing these images.
6. GETTING TO KNOW THE ARTIST:
Discuss the questions sections below thoroughly with your group in regard to your artist,
then answer them in writing.
Talents
Choose at least 3 talents out of the list below that apply to your chosen artist and
write 4 sentences describing each talent (total of 12 sentences).
Please elaborate and provide specific details, considering things like particular lyrics
that grabbed you or got them attention, influences, other artists they get compared to,
etc.
1. Singing
- From the beginning of “Hold On”, there was a lullaby feel to the singing. It was
soothing and felt familiar. With the chorus, “La-da, Da-da, da-da-da, Hey-ey, La-
da, da-da-da”, the listener is almost cast into a spell/trance to join in. The singing
accompanied by the catchy melody is the strength of the song. As far as his
singing talent goes, he has a soothing voice fit for songs of comfort, love and
perseverance, such as the ones he has released. When listening, you feel as if
you know Eddie on a personal level. He is heavily influenced by artists like John
Mayer and Jack Johnson. He also has a soft spot for lesser known, more open-
minded type artists like Sticky Fingers, Chadwick Stokes, and Dispatch. His voice
and style is very familiar to Ed Sheeran and Vance Joy, other large influences of
Eddie.
2. Songwriting
- The songwriting felt very historical, like an old folklore tune that has been
passed down through generations. Again, his songwriting influence comes from
7. smaller, more open-minded and free artists, like Chadwick Stokes, Caamp, Cage
the Elephant, and The Strokes. Surprisingly, his lyrical influence comes from
artists such as J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, Mac Miller, and others that preach about
being good humans and finding happiness. In the first 2 lines of Hold On, “There
are many things to be happy about, when life knocks you down please have no
doubt”, the sense of parental guidance is foreshadowing the daily reassurances
that one may need. It’s a gentle beacon of hope that has been disguised by a
contagious, lullaby-esque melody, with lyrics that can sneak up on you in those
moments you need them most. Then in the last stanza where it speaks on the
parents, the idea of the listener being the child or the parent becomes
interchangeable.
3. Live Performance
4. Beat-making and/or Instruments Played
5. Look and/or Aesthetic
6. Additional Talents (anything relevant and worthy of mention that is or could be tied
into their career as a musician)
- Eddie is a funny, down to earth person with a very open mind. He is ready to
tackle each new obstacle with a smile and a great attitude. If in a situation, he is
quick to be there with a helping hand, whether it’s physically demanding or just
some advice. His hard work and determination are what makes him the artist and
human he is today.
Elements of Experience
Choose at least 3 elements of experience that apply to your chosen artist and
write 4 sentences describing each element of experience. (Total of 12 sentences)
Please elaborate and provide specific details.
1. Recording/Producing
- Using help from a friend with a home studio, he had to record his guitar, main
vocal, and layer vocals in order to achieve the sound that we can hear while
playing the song on Spotify. The ability to record/produce/mix is convenient and
not limited to how much it would take to rent a studio space and pay someone
else to do it. Also, the more he records himself, the better the tracks will become
and this first one was actually pretty good.
2. Touring/Booking Themselves
- According to Eddie, himself, he plays at local coffee shops and restaurants
during the summer and when it is nice outside. Currently, he is taking his
business to local restaurants and bars to get recognition around his local area.
He does all of the work for booking and personal marketing himself. To do all of
this, he has had to make business cards, record his music, and drive around his
town and local cities nearby to book shows for himself.
3. Cowriting and Collaborating
4. Social Media
8. - Eddie Tangel is active on social media currently. Because he just released his
first single and is releasing his first EP, he has had to be on social media to
market, get the word out, and get people listening to his songs. On Facebook,
Twitter, and Instagram, Eddie is posting a direct link to his song on Spotify, as
well as a heart-felt written post asking people to listen, add it to their playlists,
and share it with friends and family. He is also interacting and answering any
questions asked directly through each platform. Part of this is research and
knowing when to post. Twitter, Spotify, Facebook, Instagram, and Tik Tok all
have specific algorithms that can really boost listeners, as long as his posts
contain the right information and hashtags.
5. Sponsorships
6. Publicity
ARTIST SWOT ANALYSIS:
To evaluate your chosen artist, write 4 sentences describing each element of a
SWOT analysis. (Total of 16 sentences) Please provide a minimum of 2 specific
examples of each category and give specific details.
1. Strengths
- One of the greatest strengths is the ability to be able to record at home
whenever a song hits him. In this industry, content reigns supreme, because if
your listeners are constantly getting new material, you will continue to be
relevant.
- Having moving lyrics is something that can catch and hold the attention of the
audience. The storytelling and raw emotion that is put into the songs shows the
passion behind the lyrics.
2. Weaknesses
- The self-recorded first release is a weakness. First impressions are
everything and in music that is no different.
- Merchandise can help to gain recognition and followers. This also helps
spread the word, especially if the clothing design is unique.
3. Opportunities
- The amount of digital platforms to release music on is bountiful. Having the
courage to put your music on these platforms makes it easier for people to find
you and for you to start making money. One thing to consider would be to work
with someone who is already TikTok or Instagram famous and ask to do a duo-
live session, promoting your music and abilities as an artist. This would help
expand fan base and possibly open the door for more monetary opportunities
through these platforms.
- There are many opportunities for personal branding. Adding a logo and
choosing a merchandise brand can really boost one’s music and exposure.
9. 4. Threats
- With home recording equipment becoming more affordable, almost daily,
there is a chance for new music to get lost among every other new artist who is
aspiring to do the same thing. The competition is stiff and can be really tough to
get recognized.
- With the amount of music being released and people being found on
streaming sites like TikTok and Twitch, a musician is going to have to have some
kind of factor that sets them apart from the rest. It is a constant fight to get music
heard and there’s always someone willing to go the extra mile to make things
happen for themselves and their career.

2.6. CONTACT: edwardtangel@gmail.com
3. Provide 3-4 sentences elaborating on your decision to include this goal and/or
why you think it is a realistic step for the artist at this point of their career. Consider
things like how this goal utilizes a core strength of your artist, why you think the artist
is prepared to take this step, or a contact/connection that the artist or team has who
can help make this a reality.
- Having a line of merchandise including various items such as apparel and
accessories with a branded logo on them will help produce an income. If all goes
as planned, a year from now Eddie will have a devoted fan base ready to have
the first digital copy of his first album or some kind of apparel from his upcoming
tour! Utilizing an online platform, we will create an online store where people can
11. buy apparel/accessories with part of the profit going to Eddie. Eventually we
would like to team up with an established brand to help promote Eddie’s image
and music even more.
4. Identify a minimum of one potential obstacle that could keep you from
accomplishing this goal (for example, the booker of a club won’t respond to your
messages, or the artist isn’t meeting deadlines), and include at least one idea for
how you could solve this problem, or even pivot to a similar goal while removing this
obstacle.
4.1. OBSTACLE: One problem here would be the affordability of the graphic
design artist or the cut in profit from using a template from a website.
4.2. POTENTIAL SOLUTION: Only sell merchandise at shows and keep the
merch small-scale. If Eddie ends up getting big and designing more, the fans
who bought the very first merch will get to say they got it “before he was cool”.
CONTENT CREATION
1. Provide 1-2 sentences describing the goal.
1.1. DESCRIPTION:
For this goal, we want to release a new song every 4-6 weeks (record, mix, and
master at least one song). This will keep content new and flowing to his
audience.
2. List the name, position, and contact information of any gatekeepers necessary in
helping you achieve this goal. (If the contact information is not available, consider
including contacts for their company/organization, a social media handle or platform
that they’re active on, or as a last resort, put “N/A” if nothing is available.)

12. things like how this goal utilizes a core strength of your artist, why you think the artist
is prepared to take this step, or a contact/connection that the artist or team has who
can help make this a reality.
- This is a great goal for an artist starting out such as Eddie. This will help with
getting new content out there quick. Our theory is that more people are likely to
listen to one song and add it to their playlists rather than try to keep up with a
whole album every year. It is also easier to say, “Hey go check out this one song
by my friend!” rather than asking someone to listen to a whole album. This takes
less time out of their day, and most people only have time to listen to one or two
songs at a time anyways!
4. Identify a minimum of one potential obstacle that could keep you from
accomplishing this goal (for example, the booker of a club won’t respond to your
messages, or the artist isn’t meeting deadlines), and include at least one idea for
how you could solve this problem, or even pivot to a similar goal while removing this
obstacle.
4.1. OBSTACLE: Not being able to make it to the studio or even get the time to
record. Another problem could arise if the artist isn’t able to produce enough
content.
4.2. POTENTIAL SOLUTION: Predetermine dates to record and book those
dates specifically to record, mix/master, and release within a 3-4 day span.
Continually write songs to have so they’re ready months in advance.
AUDIENCE GROWTH
1. Provide 1-2 sentences describing the goal.
1.1. DESCRIPTION:
With each recorded song, we release a short playlist with other songs that are
curated to the same style of Eddie’s most recent single, featuring the single
within the top 3-4 songs.
2. List the name, position, and contact information of any gatekeepers necessary in
helping you achieve this goal. (If the contact information is not available, consider
including contacts for their company/organization, a social media handle or platform
that they’re active on, or as a last resort, put “N/A” if nothing is available.)

things like how this goal utilizes a core strength of your artist, why you think the artist

Since playlists are easy to curate, Eddie won’t have any issues creating his
own. Having our artist combine his music with other comparable and well-
known artists, the chance of being heard and picking up new fans. After
playing several shows and releasing material on Patreon, Eddie has been
preparing himself to make this splash on such a large digital music platform.
Between his fans, independent playlist curators, and himself, leading people
to Eddie’s website to purchase merchandise is the end goal and achievable.
4. Identify a minimum of one potential obstacle that could keep you from
accomplishing this goal (for example, the booker of a club won’t respond to your
messages, or the artist isn’t meeting deadlines), and include at least one idea for
how you could solve this problem, or even pivot to a similar goal while removing this
obstacle.
Be specific with your potential solution and include the same amount of depth that
you gave to the initial goal’s description and projected path to accomplishing it. Also,
keep in mind that “not accomplishing a goal” doesn’t necessarily mean that it didn’t
happen at all, but this could also include the goal not being delivered upon at a
standard of quality that is acceptable to your artist and team.
4.1. OBSTACLE: The playlist could potentially slip through the cracks and get
lost-in-translation, so new listeners would miss it.
4.2. POTENTIAL SOLUTION: We can have fans help to pick the songs for the
playlist, and hopefully this will encourage them to share it with their individual
friend lists.

- Selling out a small, local venue will create ticket sales for Eddie, and in return, he
will get a cut of the ticket sales. Once the artist has an established fan base from
playing at local bars, restaurants, and coffee houses, he will be able to promote
and sell tickets to a show. These fans will obviously buy them, and they will most
likely bring a friend with them who will also buy a ticket!
8. Identify a minimum of one potential obstacle that could keep you from
accomplishing this goal (for example, the booker of a club won’t respond to your
messages, or the artist isn’t meeting deadlines), and include at least one idea for
15. how you could solve this problem, or even pivot to a similar goal while removing this
obstacle.
8.1. OBSTACLE: The booker doesn’t respond or doesn’t want Eddie to play at
their venue.
8.2. POTENTIAL SOLUTION: Research a few venues in town (with built-in
crowds) where this could be possible before any promotion or advertisement
and establish a date, time, and contract with the booking agent/owner.
CONTENT CREATION

When it comes to exposure for up-and-coming artists, collaborations help to play
a part in getting heard by more people. Every artist, including Eddie Tangel,
excels by networking and expanding their circle of associates. Eddie will be
ready to take this step because he has been putting himself in the public eye by
16. playing small shows and creating video content. Once he meets the right artist or
two to collaborate with, they can hopefully infiltrate each other’s fans and build
their foundation together.
8. Identify a minimum of one potential obstacle that could keep you from
accomplishing this goal (for example, the booker of a club won’t respond to your
messages, or the artist isn’t meeting deadlines), and include at least one idea for
how you could solve this problem, or even pivot to a similar goal while removing this
obstacle.
8.1. OBSTACLE: Reaching out and actually connecting with an artist to
collaborate with can be a tricky thing. Between finding open dates to having
chemistry for songwriting, the obstacles aren’t hard to find here.
8.2. POTENTIAL SOLUTION: We have to be persistent and do our best to work
with whatever schedules that we can. Once we can get them in a room together,
the vibe and chemistry will take over.
AUDIENCE GROWTH
5. Provide 1-2 sentences describing the goal.
5.1. DESCRIPTION:
Play more shows at Leaves N’ Beans, Pour Bros, open mic nights, and other
opportunities to play live in a local setting. This gains outreach to a different
crowd, sometimes ones that aren’t even online listening to his recorded music.
6. List the name, position, and contact information of any gatekeepers necessary in
helping you achieve this goal. (If the contact information is not available, consider

- Eddie has a list of cover songs for any situation. Whether it be a bar, coffee shop,
or restaurant, Eddie is ready to fit the vibe. Playing at as many gigs as possible,
booked or just open mic nights, will create a large audience. If the audience likes
him, he could start advertising that he does shows at all these other places,
bringing in income for those owners. Eventually this could lead to a paid weekly
gig for Eddie and a large local following.
8. Identify a minimum of one potential obstacle that could keep you from
accomplishing this goal (for example, the booker of a club won’t respond to your
messages, or the artist isn’t meeting deadlines), and include at least one idea for

happen at all, but this could also include the goal not being delivered upon at a
standard of quality that is acceptable to your artist and team.
8.1. OBSTACLE: Eddie can’t come up with any new content to play, and the
crowd is getting bored with the same old songs.
8.2. POTENTIAL SOLUTION: Start taking suggestions or having a paper for
people to fill out their song suggestions for what they want to hear. Eddie could
take that list into consideration and practice the songs to decide which ones are
best for him to play live.

Creating fresh video content for a Patreon account will help to prepare Eddie
for his future in front of the camera, while challenging him to constantly find
new ways to engage his audience. By pushing himself, Eddie will hopefully
inspire more songs, growth into his stage presence, and building/cultivating a
relationship with his audience. What has Eddie ready for this step is the
necessity to start to grow his online presence and in order to do that, we need
to create a stronger, better, and more consistent presence online.

accomplishing this goal (for example, the booker of a club won’t respond to your

- Creating a series of acoustic YouTube videos could help make fans feel more
engaged and involved. Using the background setting to set the mood of the song,
these videos will guide the viewer through the powerful lyrics behind each song.
Having a visual helps the viewer feel more emotion and see deeper into the
meaning of each song.

By integrating TikTok, Eddie will be positioning himself to have his music heard
by a younger audience. With his demographics on people between the ages of 18-
25, TikTok will provide an avenue to those fans/consumers. Since Eddie has been
preaching about TikTok since the first day, he has been preparing for this step since
before we (artist manager) started to look at him. If we can strategically place clips of
his music with choreography or a storyline, we believe that we can hook the right
audience.

standard of quality that is acceptable to your artist and team.
12.1. OBSTACLE: Trying to game plan for the right TikTok strategy is one of
our biggest obstacles.
12.2. POTENTIAL SOLUTION: Research the best “cold or no-name” TikTok
videos with the most views and see how we can piggyback off of those ideas.
