Concert Report

CONCERT REPORTS (20 points each)

Four (4) concert reports are required to demonstrate your ability to use the skills gained in this course in a concert setting.

Concert choice

For this semester,  due to COVID-19, all concerts may be from online videos.
Online videos should be of a live concert (not a produced music video) and should include the ENTIRE concert not just a single piece.
Show variety in the genre of concerts. These do not need to be done in order:
One concert must be Western classical/”art music” (orchestra, choir, chamber music, classical soloist, etc).
One concert must be a popular genre (pop, hip-hop, rap, rock, country, etc.)
One concert must be World Music, Folk, or Jazz
For the other report, you repeat any of the above or choose another genre altogether.
All concerts watched must be watched during this course.
You may not report on a concert you attended or viewed before the start date of the course.
