MUSI 1306 Concert Attendance Project

Project Guidelines

Style:

• Two pages minimum (not including header)
• Typed, double-spaced, 12-point font (maximum)
• Standard 1” margins

Content:

• React to the experience.  The focus should be what you think, not what is stated in the program.  Research is unnecessary.
• Use terms and concepts studied in class appropriately and intelligently.  For example, don’t refer to an orchestra concert as an opera.
• You should discuss all works on the program.  If you don’t, I’ll assume that you didn’t stay for the entire performance and reduce your grade accordingly.  Don’t try to fake it either.  It is obvious when someone is writing about something they did not experience.
• I want to know what you thought of the music, the performance of it and the entire experience.  Critical comments are welcome, but a rant about the stupidity of the assignment, class, curriculum, etc. will earn you a failing grade.
• Evaluate the performers themselves or perhaps the differences between the instruments or what is called for in each composition.
• Do not fill up the pages with information about the composers, performers, or a synopsis of the plot if reporting on an opera or musical.  This will only reduce your grade.  I want to know what you thought.

In the time of Covid-19, it is necessary to alter the usual assignment of attending a concert due to lack of appropriate events.  For this semester, choose one of the following documentaries and performances:

1. Beethoven-Symphony 3:  https://youtu.be/J5zFitBASEw
2. Berlioz-Symphonie Fantastique: https://youtu.be/wWi3xslzeEY
3. Tchaikovsky-Symphony 4: https://youtu.be/9tABgYM0Gsw
4. Stravinsky-The Rite of Spring: https://youtu.be/nr_0ve2KFuk
5. Shostakovich-Symphony 5: https://youtu.be/e3RbWSfhlp4
6. Copland-The American Sound: https://youtu.be/Ix2xIl2XVro

Watch the entire video and write your paper over the CONCERT portion (view the documentary for information and context).  Follow the guidelines posted in the Course Content folder.

Two pages of text not including header, 12-point font (Times New Roman), double spaced, standard margins.
