I’m in love with music because it always seems to make my day go by better. Rap, recitals, jazz and classical concerts top in my music preferred list. My passion for music made me very excited about going the Columbus state musical concert held in the River Center of Performing Arts In the Legacy Room. The theatre is located in a nice location giving the audience a full range of sound and sight. The sounds are incredible and I really loved how I could hear everything. The stage can be seen from any place that one decides to stand on. For this particular concert, the venue was dimly lit. The concert staged was adorned by different musicians, with their amazing performances.. The audience could not help, but dance and sing along with the …show more content…
The second performance that I attended was probably my most favorite. Having a background in playing the trumpet watching a listening to Christian Gordon play was simply dazzling. On Saturday October 2nd his trumpet produced a buzzing sound that started a standing wave tremor in the air. The sound produced by the blowing of air through his closed lips electrified the room. He started his piece with a loud but mellow sound arrangement that to me sounded different and had a very peculiar start to a trumpet concert. But as he continued you could actually feel the tone of the song to change very slowly, his piece in the art of song was very emotional almost like a roller-coaster. In all it really intrigued from his crazy start to a relaxed middle and a soft end. In all his performance was great, his ability to control the trumpet and its vigorous demands really amazed not only me but the crowd as well, to him you could tell it was comforting when the crowd gave him a standing ovation. The last performance I attended was put on by the Columbus State University Assembly it was held on Veterans Day November 11th. Even thou I wasn’t able to stay for the full thing I was able to see the students preform the Japanese composer Toru Takemitsu’s Sacrifice. Chant I began with the lute, which, with the hard-edged, projective playing that
On Friday night, November 13, 2015 at 7:30 p.m. I attended the Manhattan School of Music for the Jazz Orchestra that performed by Jazz vocalists and MSM alumni Jane Monheit and many other musicians. That place is unlikely the ordinary place, people have appropriate dress on and have nicely etiquette toward the performers, unlike me, many of audiences seem like that they come to this concert with certain knowledge of Jazz orchestra. And its musical venue was the ideal spot for the concert, so I sat in a decent spot spot that located at midst of the concert hall where I can view all the performers and hear performers’ music clearly. And the conductor informally began the show was quite nicely and politely which made me feel really comfortable
I chose the genre string quartet and attended a concert at First Presbyterian church on October 19th, 2014. Because of its location the sanctuary where the concert took place had many stained glass windows. It was marvelous and in my opinion well suited the feel of classical music. The audience was very responsive and attentive. They applauded when the musicians appeared, in between pieces, and at the very end. They were quick to join in the sing along portion of the concert. Overall the people attending were an older crowd but you could tell they truly appreciated the music. The concert’s duration was around an
On Thursday, March the 16th at 7 pm, I attended a concert featuring Stephen Beus, at Southeastern Community Colleges’ Auditorium. People were dressed formally, you could tell many people there had attended events like this before. The lighting was focused on the piano and the performer in the middle of the stage, it was completely silent and people applauded only at the end of each music piece.
On Friday, July 10th, I chose virtually to attend an online YouTube Symphony Orchestra Concert-2011. Many beautiful pieces were performed by a magnificent orchestra that included more than sixty participants and consisted of instruments such as: flutes, oboes, horn, clarinets, bassoons, trumpets, percussions and strings. Concert’s selections varied in length, temperament, mood and dynamics. Orchestra Symphony gave an overpowering, extraordinary presentation and delivery.
The concert was performed on the Southam Hall stage at the NAC; this is a large hall with extremely good acoustics. It is a nationally known stage, so the quality of the hall is very good. Generally, the audience was very receptive as it was composed of adults, who were all silent. The acoustics were very good as the hall spread the sound throughout the hall without making it echo. This had a positive effect on the performance, because it was possible for the orchestra to be clearly heard from any point in the entire hall. I was impressed by the large number of students that I saw that night because the show deserved to have been heard by many young people.
Fire, a necessity for human life on Earth. When this necessity becomes overused it instead changes into a danger, risking the lives of all who are in proximity. This truth relates to the Great Fire of London. Rolling through the city destroying everything in its path, the fire started on September 2, 1666 and finally ceased on September 5, 1666. The great fire of London changed the course of history by not only destroying the city of London, but also impacting London’s alliance with its allies as well as allowing an opportunity to attack for its enemies.
Dr. Carol Williams’s organ plays were just fantastic. Despite the fact that seeing the instrument called, “organ” was my first time, it was pretty impressive how that instrument worked. All the pedals and the three layers of keyboards were just as complicated as a calculus math problem. The concert was played at the Spreckels Organ Pavilion at Balboa Park. The surrounding was not too bad. Although the concert day was Sunday, it was quite crowded. Besides the crowdedness, the surroundings were not too rough. All ages were welcome to seat and enjoy the sounds of organ. I saw mostly old aged audiences and I saw a little amount of college aged audiences with the music report information on their hands.
The Uga holiday concert on December 4, 2015 was an extremely successful event, with a sold out concert hall and classic performances by a brass, string, and multiple vocal ensembles. Many classic works such as A Christmas Carol, A Hymn to the Virgin, and Feliz Navidad were performed at this concert which largely contributed to its success.
The focus of this article is on Methamphetamine, trading sex, men who have sex with men and sexual risk behavior. the article revealed a study that was conducted to find out how many people that have had trades sex in exchange for methamphetamine. Males having sex with other male were the participants of the study. Males that trades sex for drugs have higher HIV prevalence and most likely engage in unprotected sex. The study also revealed that most male that trade sex for drugs were either homeless, not well educated or self-identified as gay. Surprisingly, those that are identified as heterosexual are more likely to be homeless and trade sex for money or
For this concert report I chose to go to a performance of student composers held at the Kimball Recital Hall. I chose this one because I wanted to see some of the talent that my peers have in the music realm, and also it was one of the only concerts I have been able to attend because I usually work at night. It was impressive to hear pieces composed by students. I cannot imagine creating something as complex as a musical composition, much less actually performing it, so this aspect of the concert was particularly awe-inspiring. There was a large attendance, and I think that much of the audience consisted of friends of the composers and/or performers. I went with three friends, who I convinced by telling it would be interesting to see
The music played throughout all of the concerts adhered to be diverse. The instruments, the individuals performing, and the conductor all proved to be outstanding. The concerts proved to be interesting as I witnessed them, first hand.
This semester I have experience many live musical performances. Some of these performances have let me down but for the most part, these performances have been everything I ever expected. My two favorite performances this semester were Festival Vallenato and Ultra Music Festival. Although these two types of music are different in every way possible, the people and the performers are exactly where I feel I am in the right place.
As we all waited in line to go into the concert there was a thrill of
On Thursday April 25, 2013 , I attended a jazz vocal concert at the Music Concert Hall. The first vocal ensemble opened up the performance with a slow rhythmic song called Blue Skies. It began with vocals and I noticed a light auxiliary percussion and drum rhythm. Also, the bass guitarist used walking bass and the piano and electric guitar joined in as well. The first song also consisted of two soloist Regina and Chantel who took the front stage to show off their chops. After the solo performances they fell back into the vocal sections and finished off the song as a complete band. The second performance had a piano opening which led to vocals joining in at the same time as the rhythm section. This performance
For my second concert report I thought that I would write about my only experience hearing songs of the Beatles live. The Rib America Festival was hosted by The Beatles Live Repertoire. The group dressed exactly like the Beatles, even had the same names, John, Paul, George, and Ringo. I had never heard any Beatles songs live before, so that was enough to get me off my butt. Not to mention, it was free entertainment, not a bad time at all.
