Concert_Review_-_String

Concert Review - String When I first started this semester I thought I knew the basics about music and its history. I felt comfortable with the amount of exposure I had to music, plays, and various instruments. When our music class was assigned the concert review paper, I thought that I would be attending a concert that I would consider a good experience. However, after walking out of the concert this past Tuesday, I couldn’t believe that I had never attended a concert before. It was really a wonderful experience that was different from what I have imagined, and I’m quite convinced that everyone (at least once in their lifetime), should attend some type of concert. I was a bit unacquainted with how to prepare for a concert, but I wanted to make sure I understood what I was going to be listening to and watching. I reviewed the notes from class about what to wear, when to clap, and what to expect. It was important to me that I learned about the composers and compositions being played before walking into the concert. On May 1st, I went down to the recital hall and copied the names of the composers down from the program on concert, music, heard, experience, violin, about, out, different, class, really, piano, notes, never, composers, time, throughout, sound, played, people, over, one, learned, going, felt, way, walked, violinists, violinist, tremolo, thought, though, themes, recital, piece, movement, however
