His Little Fet Concert Review

The title of the first song is “Roman Carnival Overture, Op. 9” , preformed by the Youtube Symphony Orchestra and written by Hector Berlioz. It is a classical piece composed by Michael Tilson Thomas. The tempo for this song was all over the place. It starts off as a crescendo, then towards the end of the crescendo it becomes a mezzo-forte allegro. Suddenly it drops down to a pianissimo largo. It goes on like that for a few more steady beats then turns into a piano. As more instruments join in, it becomes a mezzo-piano adagio. When the chorus comes on it turns into an allegro. Throughout most of it, it is legato. There were many times in the beginning and end that it was an accelerando, but through most of the middle it is a ritardando. I could not tell what the meter was for this song because it seemed like it was all over the place. For rhythm, I noticed that there were a few parts that were repeated, but there was not any syncopation. The melody was predominantly conjunct and it seemed to be very tuneful. The harmony became a little dissonant in the beginning, but during most of it, it was consonant. The texture was homophonic because there were many instruments playing for most of it. The only time it was monophonic was at the start when there was a solo. The concert section that was an allegro, put me in thrilled mood. The decrescendo largo part was so moving that it made me want to cry. Overall, I liked it, it was very consonant, which made it pleasing to listen to. It was very good because the temp was vivace for a good amount of the song. This music made me picture a relationship between a man and a woman. Throughout parts they fight and during other parts they don’t, but no matter what they do, they are very passionate throughout it all.

Not like a first concert I attended, this show named “a night of Blues” had a little bit small and less impressive. It was not because the show was boring, but just a few people joined this show, the theater is also smaller, too.

The concert I attended was called the Faculty and Student Recital, which took place in the Cisco Auditorium on April 11, 2017. The music that was on the program was mostly what is called “classical” music, as well as a Chinese Folk Song, an electronic composition, and variations on an Indian Tala. In the classical pieces, the instruments that were used were the violin, the piano, the cello, and the oboe. In the electronic composition, the computer was used to make music. In the Chinese Folk Song, the piccolo was used to imitate the unique timbre of a Chinese flute. In the Indian tala, drums from Ghana were used to imitate the rhythm and sound of Indian drums. The piano, the violin, the cello, and the piccolo all originate

For this assignment, I decided to attend the NW Singers and Chamber Choir performance. The reason why I chose this option over the others is because I’ve always found organized vocal music to be very beautiful. Listening to music that uses only the human voice is striking and has a certain personal feel to it. I also feel that I can relate more to choir music, as I am in the choir at my church. This concert was directed by Ms. Susanne Spencer VanDyke, accompanied by Dr. Saundra Bishop on the piano.

When the concert begins, it opens with the ensemble starting off with the performance “Nine Perfections” played by a big group with no solo acts. The music started as homophonic and then switched to having two melodies equally layered onto each other. The performance was highly arranged with slim to none improvisation and really focused on the timbre of the music with lingering notes and repeated melodies and staggering beats on the xylophones.

Closely resembled the first performance leading me the conclusion it was from the Romantic era. The rhythmic diversity of this performance made it very interesting to watch making it much easier to reflect on the ideas we have discussed in class. This act seemed to be mostly homophonic, but also included polyphony. The only downfall of this performance was due to the fact the only instrument played was the piano, if other instruments were included I feel as if the there would be a much stronger emotional sense.

Do you ever feel like you have no one to comfort you? No one that cares which you could talk to? Come to Jesus, and have your burden lifted while it flies away. Jesus is the spirit that embraces your soul, him whom we cannot see, but yet we still acknowledge that he is there. He’s the friend who you can always trust, the parent that comforts you, the teacher that guides you, the song that sings to you, and the joy that makes you laugh. The word that is read to you, and the heartbeat, which your heart beats. To teenagers whom are losing faith, Christ can seem a million miles away or not here at all. Now and then, it may feel like endless nights of praying with no one to hear, but that is not true. Because he is not visible,

Tu Pauperum Refugium is the song I listened to. It makes me think of a choir singing in

On May 6, 2017, I attended a Guitar Recital at Lone Star North Harris. The group that performed ranged from little children to college students. Overall, everyone had their own different piece to play according to their level. For example, a little boy played Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star compared to a college student that played Asturias/Leyenda that is more on the complex side. There was not a specific type of style of music they played as the concert had Folk songs, pieces by M. Carcassi, pieces by C. Parkening, and more. What I was impressed by is a girl who I believe is around 12 years old play Siciliana by Matteo Carcassi with such smoothness and grace. It was like she was entranced and by the looks of it was passionate about what she

The concert I chose to listen to and write about is Wynton Marsalis & the Lincoln Jazz center orchestra at the BBC program, this orchestra is led by Wynton Marsalis and 15 of the finest soloist, ensemble players and arrangers in jazz that was founded in 1988 and became a touring big band for jazz at the Lincoln center. There is no specific reason as to why I chose this performance but I’m glad I did, sitting listening to this music selection it’s peaceful and relaxing to listen to.

I attended the Concert “The Music Man” on January 22 2016 8:00-9:00 at Porter High School. This type of Concert was both Vocal and Instrumental. It had people playing various amounts of instruments including Violins, cellos, a piano and more. It also had people on stage dancing and singing along with the instruments. The first song Played in this concert was “Rock Island” It was followed by “Iowa Stubborn”, “(Ya Got) Trouble”, “Piano Lessons”, “Goodnight My, Someone”, “Seventy-six Trombones”, “Sincere”, “The Sadder-But-Wiser Girl”, “Pickalittle (Talk-a-little)”, “Goodnight, Ladies”, “Marian The Librarian”, “My White Knight”, and “The Wells Fargo wagon”. When We first got there there wasn’t a lot of people, but after a while the whole front

The polyrhythmic feature kept people glad and cheerful. Likewise, the melody of the song was complex, somehow long, it had little repetition, and it was rhythmically delivered. This first song was organized in a verse/chorus form with some informal style. Perhaps their preference for live improvisation conveys the idea of an untrained musical formation. However the harmony was very consonant and its dynamics very loud, yet soft at the end of the musical piece. During the interlude, the texture of the song changed from melody with accompaniment to competing

For some time now I have been working at American Lutheran Church in the childcare department. One Sunday a couple months back, roughly around 9:00 AM as my reckoning, there were no children in the nursery. There normally isn't any in the early morning. During this time a man, that goes by the name of Jamie Ortiz, entered the room. Mr. Ortiz works in the kitchen and calls himself King of the Kitchen, at least that is what exclaimed. The moment he walked into the room, he sat himself down on one of the rocking chairs that on the right side of the room. He had made himself comfortable and brought receipts with him so he could work on expenses, and find out where exactly the money went. About ten minutes later at the very least, Debbie Smith,

This chorus has been described as “sound imagery” due to the rhythmic and melodic devices used such as the extended downward sequence of circle of fifths which has been argued to represent Jesus’ coat which was woven from top to bottom , the perfect cadence at the end which portrays a sense of fulfilment and the rhythmic “jangling” which is created by the semiquavers played by the organ which creates a sense of excitement from those who

On October 20th, I attended a Chris Tomlin concert with special guest performer Matt Maher. I attended the concert with a group from Assumption College Campus Ministry. As the concert began, the stage was dark and suddenly, a video starts playing with words flashing across the screen telling us all the qualities of God in Jesus Christ, and this was accompanied with a tremendous light show in the concert hall. During this explosion of visual sensory overload, the words on the screen were being recited at an extremely loud volume, and was accompanied by rolls of thunder where the bass shook the entire body. After about 10-minutes, everything went dark and quiet, then Chris appears on the stage. It was clear that Chris was not just here to sing, but also to sell a religious experience. This fabricated environment seemed to be forced upon the audience, and it did not at all seem natural.
