A first concert is special. Music has different meanings to everyone. Growing up I really liked Selena Gomez’s music because, although, I was young when I first started to listen to it, I matured as she did, and her music was always there. The connection you have with an artist is very special. Although the artist may not know who you are, to you it feels like they wrote that song specifically for you. That is how Selena Gomez made me feel. I connected with her songs, so when I knew that I would
Music has been important for human civilization for hundreds of years. People have used music to benefit themselves in many positive ways. As a result, it has helped to transcend language barriers between different cultures. It has given people a more common understanding of each other. Music communicates to just about everybody in some way. As someone who has listened to many various forms of music, I believe that I understand why music should be a part of everybody’s life: music works well as a
Piano Concert by Barbara Wieman and Sacramento Chamber Orchestra On Feb 20,1997, I attended a piano concert that was performed by Barbara Wieman. The performance was held at the American River College Music Department choir room. The choir room holds about 100 people and every seat was taken and students were seated on the floor. The audience was dressed casual as everyone was students trying to do their concert papers. Barbara Weiman was also dressed casual but nice. The piano concert started
Simpson The name of the performer was Ashlee Simpson. The date of the concert was on Saturday January. 8th, 2005. This concert took place at The Mall of America. This was Ashlee’s first concert in Minnesota and her first time at The Mall of America. The setting was a small stage set up at a big open area in the mall. It was a circular area. Also there were three floors you could see the stage from. This concert was not a concert that you had to buy tickets for. You could just come to The Mall of America
was fortunate to be able to attend the Spring Jazz Gala at the High School. Before entering the auditorium or even the school, I had high expectations that this would be like one of the concerts I used to perform in when I was in High School. We called it “Night at the Pops”. One of the highlights of our concert was the informal attire. We got to wear jeans and a different colored t shirt each year. The fun thing about the t-shirt is many people in band and choir designed a new design each year
On December 14, 2017 I attended the CVHS Christmas Concert “The Joy of Christmas” in the Canyon View High School auditorium. The production was put on by the Canyon View High School Music Department and featured bands, orchestras, and choirs. The Concert began with the Marching Band and tuning their instruments in preparation for the concert. The Marching Band was also joined by the Colla Voce. The Marching Band and Colla Voce consisted of about 30 students for each of the two groups. The Marching
The concert I attended took place in the Maureen Forrester Recital Hall at Wilfrid Laurie University on Friday, November 20, 2015 performed by the WLU Percussion Ensemble. They performed eight piece of music from different time periods .This was a phenomenal experience as I normally would go and appreciate concert by a string orchestra, but this was something new. As soon as the cast walked on the stage I noticed they had very vibrant coloured shirts and ties, which provided a very appealing view
It was a cold November night in Virginia. The football game had just ended at Liberty University, and it was time for the concert. I had listened to NEEDTOBREATHE all my life but only really on the Christian radio stations. However, they were definitely one of my favorite Christian bands. The only other performing artist who I knew at the concert was Mat Kearney, but the other two bands, Welshly Arms and Parachute, I had never even heard of before. Even though I had listened to the other two bands
On Tuesday, October 17, 2017, I attended a musical concert. This was the first time I had ever been to a concert and did not play. The concert was not what I expected. I assumed I was going to a symphony that featured a soloist clarinet; however, upon arrival I quickly realized that my previous assumptions were false. My experience was sort of a rollercoaster. One minute I was down and almost asleep; next I was laughing; then I was up and intrigued. The first song played was from a genre that I
the most recent concert I attended, which was Brad Paisley’s Country Nation College tour at Florida State. The concert took place on Langford Green, located outside Doak Cambell stadium, next to the infamous “Unconquered” statue. Typically this space if used for students to have an open grass area for free recreation, it is also most famous for the popular ESPN College Game Day and tailgating. It was interesting to see the audience there, since this was my first real “country” concert. I had a preexisting
Live concert analytical paper For this class assignment, we were required to go to some type of music concert and write a four to five page analytical paper on the experience. I chose a concert for someone who was on tour who I already knew and liked his style of music. The person who was heading the tour was a performer who goes by the name SoMo. He performs his own original songs as well as doing covers of other people’s music, which he posts to his channel on youtube. His style or genre of music
On November 17th , 2014 , my brother invited me to attend his San Leandro High School social justice concert which was at held in the school museum around seven o’ clock. As I attended there were about six performances that included the students from my younger brothers senior and junior social justice class. The music that was displayed was a mixture of rhythm and blues, rock , pop as well as soul. As the night began the opening play started out with a orchestra of about twenty students and they
The Foo Fighters concert at the Austin City Limits has been one of my best musical experiences. The crowd, the band, the instruments, the sounds, the stage, the lighting and the amazing balance of hard rock melodies and slow-tempo songs created a night to remember. Although I was there to have some fun, I actually recognized many of the main themes that we’ve discussed in class such as the commercialization of rock, the counterculture and aesthetics of the event, and the musical connections between
Headlined by country artists Carrie Underwood, Dierks Bentley, and Kenny Chesney located at the MGM Resorts Festival Grounds in Las Vegas, was the 4th annual ACM Party for a Cause music festival. The festival leads up to one of the country’s largest music award shows, The Academy of Country Music Awards. My husband and I were lucky enough to be able to experience this wonderful event. Being such an eye opening experience sometimes people don’t realize how many human beings actually need help in
I attended a concert on April 2016 and several other old school concerts at the Queen Mary, front row VIP area which included; Debbie deb, Cover girls, Vanilla ice and so on. Going to an old school/hip-hop concert the songs and experiences as a whole are different with every time. New school hip-hop is narrative and with this you can receive the same lyrical experience every time, as for the concert the experience is the same as the next. I am not saying that an old school concert isn’t different
I attended the last performance of the Baylor Symphony Orchestra on April 27, 2017 at 7:30pm. The concert was held in Baylor University’s Jones Concert Hall. The environment of the concert was pleasant. The concert hall was cavernous but lacked any balcony seating. Nevertheless, there was plenty of room for attendees to sit. The clothing of people attending the concert varied greatly. Younger people, presumably students of the university, wore causal clothing while older people wore formal to semi-formal
My Lat concert report took place this past Friday May 5th 2017 at 7:30 PM. This concert marked the end of my Music Appreciation course assignments, and it was a pretty nice experience. The event took place at Chaffey College inside the Theatre building.there is not really much to say about the building specially when compare to my previous concert Venue “Bridges Hall of Music” in the Claremont Colleges. None the less, The auditorium itself was decent, seats were comfortable and the sound flowed
Presbyterian Church by The TCU choral union and the University Singers. This was the initial concert for the re-instatement of the TCU choral union which is an open choir with members from Texas Christian University and the Ft. Worth area. The University Singers are a selective ensemble of music majors at TCU. St Stephens church provided a wonderful venue for this event as it made the music sound crisp and vivid. The concert began with 5 pieces by the Choral Union. The First piece was “Cry Out and Shout.”
Lana Del Rey in Concert For this assignment I have chosen to write a concert review on one of my favorite artist Lana Del Rey. I went to see her in late June in Charlotte at the PNC Music Pavilion. She was on her first headlining American tour called The Endless Summer Tour promoting her album Ultraviolence. I have followed Lana Del Rey for several years now and having the opportunity to see her live was an exhilarating experience. Classified as an alternative artist she offers many sides of her
to music they buy. Also, the reasons certain groups are more popular than others. I used a couple various methods of research to conduct my research. I wrote up ten surveys with some questions about gender, age, what they buy, do they attend concerts, and do they support local music. I passed these surveys out to completely random students so there was no imbalance of the results. I hope to find out certain things like: are males affected more than females from music; who buys more clothing/
