Music ensemble

I have went to Solo and Ensemble a few times in the past, and this year’s music piece was the hardest one that I had to do. It was a challenge to play the piece right. What I go on my piece was what I deserved. The piece that I picked was a class B which was the same class as my last year’s piece. My last year’s piece was much slower than this year’s piece. My music piece that I picked was not something that the Catholic Christian Faith influenced me to play it, it was my choice of which piece

Ensemble Vagabond’s debut performance of The Rite of Spring changed the history of Igor Stravinsky’s outrageous ballet. Arranged for Winds and Piano, Peter Facer has taken this momentous piece to an entirely new level. With the Callaway Music Auditorium at maximum capacity, Vagabond strode confidently onstage to roaring applause to give the performance of a lifetime. Adam Mikulicz’s bassoon solo to open the piece captured the audience while Emily Clements added colour and ornamentation with both

Therefore, I didn’t know what kind of music to expect or any music that I was familiar to. This concert was a new experience for me. It was far different from a rock concert held in some big venue. The purpose of this concert was to give people a taste of the NEIU Jazz Ensemble. The heritage or the background of this concert was strictly Jazz music. I was excited about

accompanied by piano as this represents the piece as it was originally written for piano and violin. Frank Kim performs it with a lot of expression and extremes of dynamic and tempo more typical of the romantic period; The Horseholm Percussion and Marimba Ensemble which used similar

Paragraphs: 1 The concert took place in the Weber Music Hall. Weber Music hall is a small auditorium with two levels of seating. The setting was very formal. Everyone was very quiet and paid attention to the performance. The lights were a little dim everywhere, as very bright light shined on the ensemble. The piano was center stage and faced sideways, so the audience could see the side view of the pianist playing. The violinist was in front of the piano and a little to the left, so he did not block

continuing their music careers in high school. I talked about the multiple ensembles you can be apart of, this includes jazz band, concert band (the ninth grade band that they will be apart of their first year in high school), marching band, and pep band.

113 Samul Ensemble rehearses and performs a Korean samul repertoire each semester. The primary foci of the course are for students to experience the art of ensemble playing and to understand basic compositional components and techniques associated with the samul genre. Our class relies on the traditional rote learning method that employs instrument-specific Korean onomatopoetic sounds.

Jazz and Classical Music Upon entering a modern record store, one is confronted with a wide variety of choices in recorded music. These choices not only include a multitude of artists, but also a wide diversity of music categories. These categories run the gamut from easy listening dance music to more complex art music.
