Philadelphia Orchestra Concert Report

The Original Three Tenors Concert in 1990 was recorded live and originated as a fund raiser for the José Carreras International Leukemia Foundation. This concert was held on July 7th, 1990 at Baths of Caracalla in Rome, Italy. The key performers were José Carreras, who had been diagnosed with Leukemia, Luciano Pavarotti, and Plácido Domingo. The voices of these three Spaniard men along with, Zubin Mehta, who conducted orchestras of Teatro dell'Opera di Roma and the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, recorded what author Stephen Eddins writes in his article on the website called “All Music” as, “the Guinness Book of World Records (in 2010) for the best-selling classical album of all time” (Eddins, All Music). This was the beginning of “The Three

Last Monday, I got to experience a sensational performance by the University Symphony, composed by Dr. Jonathan Pasternack, that enhanced my knowledge and emotional state through the uniqueness of both the symphony and opera act. Having only experienced a symphony once during the course of my life, I was ecstatic to attend such a soothing and joyful concert. The concert was fairly short, it last two hours, and consisted of 2 symphony songs and 1 opera act. The first two were symphony, which were played in a very unpredictable manner. The melody (violins) started off very slow and quickly increased their tempo. The orchestra performed many instances of crescendo and decrescendos; this kept the audience on the edge of their seats in

On April 11th, 2017 in the Louis Armstrong Theatre, I attended the GVSU “University Band”. This up-beat ensemble lasted about 90 minutes; the talented students of GVSU’s university band joined together to perform multiple different songs ranging from a Waltz to a Dixieland Jamboree. All of the songs that the band played for the audience were all well-known, popular songs that they all enjoyed. Having the opportunity to attend this concert has opened new musical paths for myself and has allowed me to enjoy and kindly critique something that I perhaps would have never had the chance to otherwise.

Why did the Americans join the first world War? The Americans were almost forced to join the war because there were threats to national security, an unbalance in Europe, affected trade, and American lives were lost. With America joining the war this caused the Allied powers to win without Russia. This also creates the league of nations which insured peace for the future. It was necessary for the Americans to join the war because there would have been an unbalance with political power and the United States would lose five hundred million dollars which would cause a collapse in the

The concert starts, the lights dim in the gallery. The President and CEO Tim P. Young takes the stage to inform us that this evening 's concert is being recorded to be aired at a later date on KNPB channel 5. Mr. Young introduces, Ms. Laura Jackson she introduces the principal violinist to a standing ovation. Followed by Mr. Benjamin Bielman enters the gallery to thunderous applause. The concert begins. Starting like a warm spring day full of happiness, joy birds a fluttering.Mr. Beilman 's expression shows an intense passion with every note played. Dark tones turn into light in the next movement. Like a lost loved one who has been found. From light to dark the music plays. Hopefulness swells like a playground full of young vibrant children, running, laughing enjoying the sunshine beating down on their smiling faces. Leaves appear blowing in the wind one by one until the crescendo of the deep dark tones reaches the top of the concert hall. A Lonely

I cannot believe what my eyes have witnessed. On February 24, 2017, I had the opportunity to volunteer and to witness a Stax Music Academy concert. Every year in February, the Stax Music Academy pays tribute to legendary music artist by performing some of the most iconic songs that were sung during the late 50’s - early 90’s. This year, the Stax Music Academy did an R&B concert based on the Stax Volt tour, which included people like, Otis Redding, The Barkays, The Staple singers, and more. This concert was sold out, and the crowd really enjoyed themselves.

On November 20, 2014, I had an opportunity to watch a concert entitled “Autumn Winds” at Colburn School in Downtown Los Angeles. It was part of a monthly concert series “Rush Hour Concerts at Colburn” hosted by Gibson Dunn. Gibson Dunn is a prominent law firm whose active involvement in the community expands to all various arenas of the society through their leadership and services. Rush Hour Concert is held monthly at Thayer Hall in Colburn School located at 200 South Grand Avenue diagonally across from the Walt Disney Concert Hall. Rush Hour Concert encourages the commuters to avoid traffic with this program to unwind after a long days of work with a wine reception at 5:30 pm

On November 5, 2016 at 7:30 pm the Civic Orchestra played in the Stocker Center at Lorain County Community College. They played three pieces all by different composers. They also had Janine Porter singing one of the pieces.

My initial response to the concert was of much surprise. First, when I walked in I didn’t expect to see such a formal event. Thank goodness I showed up in my work clothes! My initial reaction to the music however was one of great surprise. I didn’t really know what to expect from the Lee’s Summit Symphony because honestly I didn’t even know they existed. Once the symphony began to play “Don Giovanni” my mood instantly changed. The symphony was incredible, and the music was not what I had expected at all. I was surprised by how much of the music I had actually heard before and just not realized it.

On Saturday, November 21st I attended Stage III’s production of the musical The Drowsy Chaperone at the Beaudoin Theater in Siena Campus’ Foy Hall. In order to keep productions interesting for all members of the audience, Stage III productions differ each year. So, Stage III production genres vary each year, as no genre of play or musical is repeated within the same year. The musical direction in Stage III’s The Drowsy Chaperone was by Dr. Timothy J. Reno, while the music and lyrics were by Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison.

Central Pennsylvania, and specifically, the Harrisburg area, is full of many potentially bright minds who unfortunately can’t always find the right place with people who will nurture and encourage them. Plagued with the common national problem of an overpopulation of students paired with an understaffing of teachers, many of these minds go by without anyone to guide them in the right direction. As a result, intelligence that could be used to better the world around us is directed toward darker things such as crime and violence. Fortunately, there are groups in the area that are making an effort to enrich misguided young people, groups such as the Harrisburg Symphony Orchestra, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Pennsylvania Ballet, and

On September 30th, I had the pleasure of attending the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra at the Fisher Auditorium. We walked in quietly to the back row of our section because the show had already started, so it would have been rude to walk up to where our actual seats were. As we took our seats the orchestra sat up there in the beautiful auditorium dressed in their all black formal attire holding their various instruments including the woodwinds, strings, brass, and percussions. The orchestra was in the middle of playing Symphony No. 8 in F major, Opus 93. This symphony included 5 compositions that were all very similar to each other. In most of the compositions they took the audience on a roller coaster ride. The rhythm of the compositions would

Underneath the depths of the ocean lies glimpses and fragments of overwhelming sentiment that construct a photomontage in contemplation of creating the bigger picture. On deciphering an enigmatic ordeal of far greater magnitude and emotional significance, the iceberg principle successes in eclipsing the truth of a story. Hemingway operates under this technique to let the concrete facts float above water while drowning the intense emotions of a character. Hemingway’s signature stripped-down technique is manifested in a noteworthy story that is set against the abhorrence of war; A Farewell To Arms is a semiautobiographical work composed by Ernest Hemingway after World War I. Hemingway uses the iceberg principle to create a lucid image with the sententious and terse elucidation about Frederic Henry 's character; hence, portraying deep emotions and thoughts that are profoundly veiled within his dialogues and actions. To enhance an in-depth psychological dissection of Frederic Henry’s severe emotional trauma caused by warfare, Hemingway uses telegraphic dialogue, stream-of-consciousness, and symbolism.

On Sunday, May10 2015, a concert was held in The Broad Stage. The concert was played by Santa Monica College Symphony Orchestra, whose conductor is Dr. James Martin. For this concert, I would identify myself as a referential listener at this concert. I say this because I am not an expert in music, therefore it would be hard for me to be a critical listener. I wouldn’t be able to tell what went wrong with a performance even if some incorrect notes were played. I was more of a referential listener because the music was soothing and brought my mind to peaceful thoughts. This essay will tells my experience of the concert in order to persuade my friend to  attend a classical music concert with you in the future.

Ethics are principals that practice in everyday life, helping individuals make a decision on what is right and wrong, and then doing the right thing.
