Kha Tran Music Appreciation HUM 1113 Second Concert Review A Night of “Guitars” Not like a first concert I attended, this show named “a night of Blues” had a little bit small and less impressive. It was not because the show was boring, but just a few people joined this show, the theater is also smaller, too. It was a Tuesday evening of April 12, me and my sister knew that there also had another concert held on the VPA, but still decided to go to this concert because we all love guitar. We headed
The Repertory Dance Company Fall Dance Concert was held at the Mannoni Performing Arts Center. The dancers involved in this dance concert are part of the University of Southern Mississippi Dance Department meaning they are either pursuing a degree in dance or teach dance at a university level. Both students and faculty had the opportunity to present work during adjudication to be chosen to be presented at this concert. I particularly enjoyed this concert because, while all of the dances presented

We, students, have been requited by our instructor to write a concert review as an assignment. It is in that sense that I went to the Levitt pavilion and attend to Walt wilkins & mystiqueros.

to hear several guitar concerts each semester. If you’ve never attended a classical music concert before, you might feel uncomfortable with the idea of it. This is perfectly normal and is not specific to classical music. I’m sure you can imagine how out of place one might feel attending a Phish concert if one wasn’t accustomed to the culture that goes along with that music. The same can be said for all genres of music. The main thing to remember when attending these concerts is that the focus is on
Classical music has been played in many different venues, with many different instruments, in many different time periods so it is very interesting to compare all of the performances. The performance I went was definitely very different from how the music would’ve been played when the composers first wrote them. The 200-year difference allows me to explore all of the unique aspects that both the first performance and my current performance added to the experience that classical music concerts. Although
Concert Review: Kendrick Lamar To begin I’d like to mention that I love Kendrick Lamar; to me he is a lyrical genius especially in an era where rap has changed to an even more violent tone.

In this day and

It is especially considered “nonexistent” in comparison to another Texas city, Austin. Austin has this huge reputation of having a phenomenal music scene and it is even billed as “The Live Music Capital of the World.” Yes, Austin has great local bands and many avid music fans but so does Houston.

If you ask a Houstonian about the music scene around town, you would get a pretty bleak answer. Many people seem to believe it starts and ends with Beyoncé.

text regarding Plato’s and Aristotle’s philosophical views on music, I have decided to approach the critique of the Beatles’ 1965 classic, “Yesterday”, under the guidelines set out by Aristotle. The aim of this critique will be to determine if the selected piece of music accomplishes two or more of the musical purposes established by Aristotle, which include education, amusement, and pastime. After clarifying the piece’s purpose, the review can then proceed to discuss how and in what way merit can be
