Please write 2 pages about the show as you were there in person. You can google and youtube as a source to help you write this. Kindly see the attachment for guidelines. The first paragraph should be an introduction. In it you should briefly describe the most important ideas of your paper (tell us what you are going to say). In the body of your paper discuss the following (say what you have to say):  Describe the concert-going experience itself: Possible ideas: What was the environment like (the concert hall, the people, the stage, the musicians, etc.) Was the environment different than you expected? What were you expecting? This should only be a paragraph or two—don’t pad the paper with too much background!  You should then discuss the music: Pick one or two pieces that you particularly liked YOU MUST GIVE THE FULL TITLE OF THE PIECE AND THE COMPOSER: describe it using the terms we discuss in class, rhythm, texture, and timbre. Be as specific as possible. The goal is for you to apply your knowledge of these terms to the piece that you choose as your topic, and to show me as clearly as possible that you understand these terms, and that you are able to apply them to a piece. Review the terms in your text, and use related terms as well (homophony, polyphony, monophony, rhythmic terms, etc.). Discuss the instrumentation of the piece as a whole, and describe how various timbres were used in the composition. Also, discuss the dynamics (review terms such as forte, crescendo, etc.). Explain why you liked the piece. Again, be specific, and use the musical terms that you have learned.
