I have attached the instructions. For the “Concerto for 3 Harpsichords in C Major”, they used 3 keyboards instead of 3 harps. They also added an electric oboe to the stage.
I can write about “Sonic Mania” and “Yuri on Ice”, so just writing about first 4 pieces will be very helpful to me.
CONCERT REPORT INSTRUCTIONS: As part of your course work,
one concert report is required of a Classical music concert you attend
during the course. Rock, Pop or Jazz concerts or concerts by high
school groups are not acceptable. Students are not allowed to write
about a concert in which they participate. College level and
professional organizations and performers are acceptable. The program
must be preapproved and it must be a concert that you know what the
pieces to be performed are ahead of time for research purposes. There
will be a Concert Report forum in Catalyst where you will need to tell
the class about the concert you are attending. Again this must be a live
performance that takes place during the current quarter. I had a student
turn in a report based on a concert viewed on YouTube. Very
unfortunate – please don’t even ask about doing a report on a recorded
or online concert performance. Do, however, use YouTube, Naxos and
other web recourses to research the pieces on your concert before
attending. You also might find it valuable to listen to your pieces as
you write your paper!
In your email describing the concert and asking for approval do not
include a link but instead summarize the information from the link.
In your email tell me name of the group or performer, the date and
most importantly what pieces will be performed. It is important
that you know what pieces are being performed ahead of time so
you can do some research and be prepared.
TYPES: A variety of concerts are possible i.e. SOLO RECITALS
(voice or instrumental), CHORAL GROUPS, ORCHESTRA,
CONCERT BANDS, CHAMBER MUSIC, EARLY MUSIC
GROUPS, CONTEMPORARY MUSIC GROUPS. Opera and Ballet
performances are not appropriate for the report unless you are able to
write 10 -15 pages of work. If in doubt consult with Mr. Tayerle.
THE BODY OF THE REPORTS MUST BE TYPED SINGLE
SPACE, 2 TO 3 FULL PAGES IN LENGTH, BUT NOT MORE
THAN 3 PAGES. 1500 – 2000 words minimum. YOU MUST
REPORT ON THE ENTIRE CONCERT. THE SIZE OF TYPE
(FONT) SHOULD BE NO SMALLER THAT 10 AND NO LARGER
THAN 12. NORMAL MARGIN WIDTH SHOULD BE USED ON
THE RIGHT AND LEFT SIDES OF THE PAGE. DESCRIBE EACH
PIECE AND EACH MOVEMENT.
On separate page that does not count toward the word or page count
paste a photo of your concert ticket and a photo of the stage after the
performance. Pictures are not allowed to be taken during most concerts
and please make sure your phone (and you) does not make noise during
the performance.
