Describe Online Concert Observation.

I’ll just copy the assignment as it was given to me. The following is in the words of my instructor:You are required to watch an online concert and write an observation paper about the concert. You can find a list of these online concerts through- Classic FM: https://www.classicfm.com/music-news/live-streamed-classical-music-concerts-coronavirus/ (Links to an external site.)- Classical MPR https://www.classicalmpr.org/story/2020/03/16/free-online-classical-concerts (Links to an external site.)A full concert normally consists of 65 to 90 minutes of music. Make sure you watch the entire concert or watch at least 65 minutes worth of different performances.Make sure you include “who, what, when, and where”: specifically, who performed, what they played or sang, when the concert took place, and where.You will need to cite the source of your concert by including the link(s) to the concert(s) you are writing the paper on.***********************************************Writing a concert report calls for more critical thinking—and listening—than answering discussion questions for class. In fact, it involves three kinds of critical listening:Analytical. What genre of music was played (symphony or string quartet)? What form is used in the pieces (sonata-allegro or strophic verse and chorus)?If program notes are provided, it is helpful to read the program notes before the start of the concert so you have a better idea of the music you are about to hear.Technical. How well did the performers do (too fast, too slow, out of tune, not well blended)?Emotional. How effective was the performance? (Did it make you want to cry or dance for joy, or did it just leave you cold?) Here’s a list of important things to keep in mind as your write your report:Refer to the piece in the present tense (“The first movement of Beethoven’s symphony is written as allegro …”), but the performance is discussed in the past tense (“… but the orchestra played the first movement without energy or enthusiasm”).Connect what you hear with what you learned in the class. Use your newly developed musical vocabulary. Don’t say, for example, “The instruments moved the melody around.” Rather, say specifically, “The theme was first played by the oboes, then the violins repeat the theme in a different key.”Use correct vocabulary. Please don’t call an instrumental composition a “song.” It is a piece, composition, work, sonata, symphonic mov
ement, and so on. Unless there is a text and your piece is sung, it is not a song.You should include all music performed in the program in your report. However, you don’t have to devote equal time to all pieces on the program. You may be able to generalize about one or two of the pieces in a couple of sentences for each, and then move on to what was, for you, the most arresting performance of the concert.Proofread your report.
